उत्तर
Q = W
In an isothermal process, temperature of the system stays constant, i.e. there's no change in internal energy. Thus, U = 0, where U denotes the change in internal energy of the system. According to the first law of thermodynamics, heat supplied to the system is equal to the sum of change in internal energy and work done by the system, such that Q = U + W. As U = 0, Q = W.
