Description

We address Bizarro's comment on our paper (2011 Eur. J. Phys. 32 37). It is argued that while Bizarro's analytical solution for the adiabatic irreversible processes in our paper is pedagogically relevant, his criticism regarding the behaviour of heat and work for a system–surroundings interchange is unfounded. Some of Bizarro's other statements regarding our paper are also rebutted. (reply)
