Question 8 • 25-26 CHEMISTRY IN THE EARTH SYSTEM S1
In an adiabatic process, no heat is transferred into or out of the system. By the first law of thermodynamics, any energy supplied through work changes the system’s internal energy rather than entering as heat; among these choices, B best matches the idea that heat transfer does not occur. A describes heat absorption, and D describes an isothermal process, where temperature stays constant.
