When the rate of a gas changes without a change in temperature, the gas is said to haveundergone:
Correct answer: A. Isothermal Process
- A. Isothermal Process
- B. Adiabatic Process
- C. Isochoric Process
- D. Isobaric Process
Explanation
An isothermal process is one in which there is no change in temperature. An adiabaticprocess is one in which there is no transfer of heat energy between the system and thesurroundings. An isochoric process is one in which the volume stays constant. An isobaricprocess is one in which the pressure is kept constant. Therefore, the answer is A.The term isothermal refers to as same temperature or no change in temperature, so according to statement the correct option will be option A isothermal process.An adiabatic process is one in which there is no transfer of heat energy between the system and the surroundings.isochoric process is one in which the volume stays constant.An isobaric process is one in which the pressure is kept constant.

About First Law of Thermodynamics
The first law relates heat supplied, work done and the change in internal energy through energy conservation. Problems use sign conventions and apply the law to isothermal, adiabatic, isobaric and isochoric processes. Internal energy is a state function, while heat and work depend on the path followed.
