Can a system be heated and its temperature remains constant?

Answer»

∆Q = ∆U + W (from I law of thermodynamics)

or, ∆Q = nCv∆T + ∆W  (∵ ∆U = nCv∆T)

if system has constant temperature inspite of heat supplied then supplied then

∆T = 0 and ∆Q = ∆W. It means heat supplied (∆Q) to the system is used in doing work (∆W) against the surroundings.
