An isothermal process's a change in which the temperature of the system stays constant: ΔT = 0. This typically occurs when a system's in contact with an outside thermal reservoir (heat bath), and the change occurs slowly enough to allow the system to continually adjust to the temperature of the reservoir through heat exchange. An alternative special case in which a system exchanges no heat with its surroundings (Q = 0)'s called an adiabatic process. In other words, in an isothermal process… (More on Isothermal)
