The isothermal system has constant:
Correct answer: A. Temperature
- A. Temperature
- B. Pressure
- C. Entropy
- D. Energy Conservation
Explanation
The prefix "iso-" means "same" or "constant," and "thermal" relates to heat or temperature. Therefore, an isothermal process is one that occurs at a constant temperature.

About Thermal Equilibrium and Heat
Thermal equilibrium means that bodies in contact have the same temperature and no net heat flows between them. The topic distinguishes heat from temperature, uses the zeroth law of thermodynamics, and covers heat transfer, specific heat capacity, thermal expansion and the conditions for reaching equilibrium.
