(d) 1

When a thermodynamic system undergoes a change in such a way that no exchange of heat takes place between it and the surroundings, the process is known as the adiabatic process.

Graph 4 is an isobaric process, and 1 is isochoric of 3 and 2,3 has the smaller slope (magnitude) and hence is isothermal. The remaining process is adiabatic. So graph 2 is adiabatic. The correct answer is option (C).
