(A) A device that converts heat into work with 100% efficiency

It clearly violates the second law of thermodynamics because it warns that while all work can be turned into heat, not all heat can be turned into work. Therefore, despite the innumerable efforts, the efficiencies of the bodies have only been able to reach 60% at present.
