For 1st law of thermodynamics 

ΔU=q+w For adiabatic process: q=0ΔU=w [ From (i)] For isothermal process ΔT=0 For 1st law,ΔU=nCVΔTq=w [ From (i)]

For cyclic process : ΔU=0 [as U is a state function]

q=-w  [from (i)]

For isothermal process : volume is constant

w=PexIdVsincedV=0w=0U=q [ From (i)]
