Please I thought that the product of pressure, P. And volume, V. Which is PV = C is an Isotropic process.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Given: PV=C, so isothermal process. Isothermal process is also called 'Hyperbolic process'. As the P vs V shows hyperbolic curve for isothermal process.
So, option A & B both are correct.
So, option A & B both are correct.

According to boyle law T IS CONSTANT.

Actually, for superheated steam, isothermal process is also hyperbolic process. So, since hyperbolic process is only a special case of the former, answer should have been either (a) or both (a) & (b).

As per boyle law pv = c. This is equation of hyperbolic process.

I am agree that answer should be either A or B.

PV = C is hyperbolic percess.

I'm satisfied with your answer. As isothermal process are also known as hyperbolic process because of the design if the curve p-v i.e a hyperbola.

The correct answer is polytropic because PV * n= constant, where as in isothermal process PV = T constant. As question asks about the product of PV constant, not Temperature constant.
