Homework Statement
Consider 1 gram of an ideal gas undergoing isobaric process. Suppose del(H) be the amount of heat given to it. Then,
del(H) = dU + del(W)
del(H) = 1 x C(v)dT + (P.dV)/J
But del(H) = C(p)dT
P.dV = r.dT
C(p)dT = C(v)dT + (r.dT)/J
C(p) - C(v) = r/J
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
In the above derivation, when volume is changing, how can they take dU = mC(v)dT?
Here m = mass of gas,r = gas constant,J = Mechanical equivalent of heat
