Isothermal Expansion

Isothermal Expansion of a gas signifies expansion without change of temperature. The volume and pressure change together, but the law connecting them during isothermal expansion is different to that which holds when the gas is allowed to expand without gain or loss of heat. For a gas remote from its vapour condition, isothermal expansion is such that the product of its volume and its pressure remains always constant.
