An ideal gas is enclosed in an insulated cylinder. The piston is frictionless and attached to an ideal spring. When the gas is heated, then:
           

1. the work is done against the spring only.
2. the work is done against the atmospheric pressure only.
3. the internal energy of gas increases.
4. the work is equal to the heat supplied.
