  1. Heating at constant volume
  2. Cooling at constant pressure
  3. Expansion against a constant external pressure
  4. Expansion where temperature remains constant

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following processes is isothermal for an ideal gas?
  • Step 1: Understand what an isothermal process means. It means that the temperature does not change.
  • Step 2: Know that an ideal gas is a theoretical gas that follows certain rules, including that it can expand or compress.
  • Step 3: Identify that during an isothermal process, even if the gas expands or compresses, the temperature stays the same.
  • Step 4: Remember that for an ideal gas, the pressure and volume can change, but the temperature remains constant in an isothermal process.
