Work id done on a gas when there is change in its volume. In isobaric process only the pressure is constant ( also moles ). thus if we change the temp of the gas the volume is changed accordingly and hence work is performed which is not zero.

work done =PdVnow since P is not 0 bt is constant, n if volume is constant i.e. change in volume is non 0 den work is not 0

Here pressure is constant n change in pressure is 0,and we know w=pdv n not dpdv,hence work is not zero.
