Question
Isothermal process and Adiabatic process.

Answer

Isothermal process:
  1. In an isothermal process, the temperature of the system remains constant. $\Delta T=0$
  2. In this process, the system exchanges heat with the surroundings. $Q \neq 0$ (Closed system)
  3. The total internal energy of the system remains constant.
  4. In this process, the system is not thermally isolated.
  5. In this process, $Q=-W$ as $\Delta U=0$.
  6. $\Delta H=0$.
Adiabatic process:
  1. In an adiabatic process, the temperature of the system changes. $\Delta T \neq 0$
  2. In this process, the system does not exchange heat with the surroundings. Q = 0 (Isolated system)
  3. The total internal energy of the system changes. $\Delta U \neq 0$
  4. In this process, the system is thermally isolated.
  5. In this process, $W=\Delta U$.
  6. $\Delta H \neq 0$.
