Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:The reason to write qv = ΔU for only constant volume process needs to be explained.The validity of the relation needs to be checked if work other than P-V work is possible.

Concept Introduction: Thermodynamics is the branch of chemistry that deals with heat exchange between system and surroundings. The thermodynamic process can be classified into 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. Enthalpy can be defined as the sum of the internal energy added to the product of the pressure and volume of the system. It is denoted as H.
