What is the term given to a process that occurs without a loss or gain of heat?
β’ Heat transfer vs. no heat transfer β’ Difference between exo-/endothermic processes and processes defined by heat exchange conditions β’ Meanings of common thermodynamic terms: adiabatic and isothermal
β’ Which option describes a process specifically in terms of whether heat is exchanged with the surroundings, rather than whether temperature changes? β’ Think about which term means "constant temperature" and which means "no heat is added or removed." β’ How do exothermic and endothermic processes behave with respect to heat flow direction?
β’ Identify which choice refers to no heat exchange with surroundings, not constant temperature or heat release/absorption. β’ Verify that you are not confusing constant temperature (T) with no heat transfer (Q). β’ Eliminate any option that explicitly involves heat being given off or taken in.
