An Isothermal Process is one that occurs at a constant temperature. During an isothermal process, the system exchanges heat with its surroundings in such a way that the temperature remains constant throughout. However, for an ideal gas undergoing an isothermal process, the relationship between pressure (), volume (), and temperature () is given by
Where:
- is the pressure of the gas,
- is the volume of the gas,
- is the number of moles of gas,
- is the ideal gas constant,
- is the temperature of the gas.
