MCQ
The specific heat of a gas in an isothermal process is
  • Infinite
  • B
    Zero
  • C
    Negative
  • D
    Remains constant

Answer

Correct option: A.
Infinite
a
(a)In isothermal process temperature remains constant. i.e., $\Delta T = 0$. Hence according to $C = \frac{Q}{{m\Delta T}}$==>${C_{iso}} = \infty $
