Good day all !
I have a confusion regarding the use of the formula dU=CdT for computing internal energy for liquid or solid
like for instance in this exercice
We have an isothermal process so I thought that dU=0 so according to the first law of thermodynamics
dQ=-dW (we want to calulate the heat transfer)
but the solution was totally different, for them dU is different from 0 ! (they got the values of u1 and u2 from tables)
any hint would be highly appreciated thanks!
