Isochronon
(I*soch"ro*non) n. [NL. See Isochronous.] A clock that is designed to keep very accurate time.

Isochronous
(I*soch"ro*nous) a. [Gr. equal + time.] Same as Isochronal.

Isochroous
(I*soch"ro*ous) a. [Iso- + Gr. color.] Having the same tint or color throughout; uniformly or evenly colored.

Isoclinal
(I`so*cli"nal I`so*clin"ic) a. [Iso- + Gr. to incline.] Of or pertaining to, or indicating, equality of inclination or dip; having equal inclination or dip.

Isoclinal lines (Magnetism), lines on the earth's surface connecting places at which a dipping needle indicates the same inclination or dip.

Isocrymal
(I`so*cry"mal) a. (Phys. Geog.) Pertaining to, having the nature of, or illustrating, an isocryme; as, an isocrymal line; an isocrymal chart.

Isocryme
(I"so*cryme) n. [Iso- + Gr. cold.] (Phys. Geog.) A line connecting points on the earth's surface having the same mean temperature in the coldest month of the year.

Isocrymic
(I`so*crym"ic) a. Isocrymal.

Isocyanic
(I`so*cy*an"ic) a. [Iso- + cyanic.] (Chem.) Designating an acid isomeric with cyanic acid.

Isocyanic acid, an acid metameric with cyanic acid, and resembling it in its salts. It is obtained as a colorless, mobile, unstable liquid by the heating cyanuric acid. Called technically carbimide.

Isocyanuric
(I`so*cy`a*nu"ric) a. [Iso- + cyanuric.] (Chem.) Designating, or pertaining to, an acid isomeric with cyanuric acid, and called also fulminuric acid. See under Fulminuric.

Isodiabatic
(I`so*di`a*bat"ic) a. [Iso- + Gr. to pass through.] (Physics) Pertaining to the reception or the giving out of equal quantities of heat by a substance. Rankine.

Isodiabatic linesor curves, a pair of lines or curves exhibiting, on a diagram of energy, the law of variation of the pressure and density of a fluid, the one during the lowering, and the other during the raising, of its temperature, when the quantity of heat given out by the fluid during any given stage of the one process is equal to the quantity received during the corresponding stage of the other. Such lines are said to be isodiabatic with respect to each other. Compare Adiabatic.

Isodiametric
(I`so*di`a*met"ric) a. [Iso- + diametric.]

1. (Crystallog.) Developed alike in the directions of the several lateral axes; — said of crystals of both the tetragonal and hexagonal systems.

2. (Bot.) Having the several diameters nearly equal; — said of the cells of ordinary parenchyma.

Isodimorphic
(I`so*di*mor"phic) a. [Iso- + dimorphic.] Isodimorphous.

Isodimorphism
(I`so*di*mor"phism) n. Isomorphism between the two forms severally of two dimorphous substances.

Isodimorphous
(I`so*di*mor"phous) a. [Iso- + dimorphous.] Having the quality of isodimorphism.

Isodulcite
(I`so*dul"cite) n. [Iso- + dulcite.] (Chem.) A white, crystalline, sugarlike substance, obtained by the decomposition of certain glucosides, and intermediate in nature between the hexacid alcohols (dulcite, mannite, etc.) and the glucoses.
