What is a thermodynamically reversible process? How is the amount of work obtained from a change related to thermodynamically reversibility? Select all that apply. O In a reversible process, the driving force of the process is nearly balanced by an opposing force. O In a reversible process, the driving force of the process is much larger than any opposing force. It is easy and common to establish a reversible process. O A reversible process is the most efficient as a source of the maximum useful work possible from the process. O A reversible process is the least efficient as a source of the maximum useful work possible from the process.
