Consider an ideal monatomic gas. Here, take N as constant. We can take any two arguments like (p, V) or (E, V) or (p, T) and use them as variables representing the macro state. Using E = 3 / 2Nk (B) T for a monatomic ideal gas: A) Take (E, V) as macroscopic variables and express dW and dQ in terms of these variables ( Find the dV expressions). B) Check that dW and dQ are not full differentials. Prove that dQ / T is the exact differential. C) Repeat the above process, taking (p, T) as macroscopic variables.
