Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Theexpression for calculating the isothermal changes in the constant volume heat capacity needs to be derived:

Concept Introduction: Thermodynamics is the branch of chemistry that deals with heat exchange between system and surroundings. The thermodynamic process can be classified in two types; isothermal and adiabatic process.

Different thermodynamic properties like enthalpy, entropy, free energy etc. are used to define different properties like volume, pressure and heat capacity.
