An .iso file is a standard format to store the contents of an optical disk as one file on the computer.

To Burn a disk is to open this file with a program such as Nero and copy it to the disk in such a way that the disk works like the original disk that the file was made from.

To Mount the .iso as a file, it to use a program to make the file appear as a disk on your computer, so that you can read the contents. "Mount" is used in many computer systems to mean: "Connect to the disk so the disk so that I can use it".
