KillGorack 2023-07-11 18:59:02 An adiabatic process is one in which no heat is transferred into or out of the system. The term "adiabatic" literally means "impassable," derived from the Greek roots "adiabatos" which refers to not allowing passage of heat. The internal energy change of the system is done only by work. So the correct answer is: no heat is transferred between a system and its surroundings.
