Heat Capacity

The heat capacity is defined as:


dT: temperature change
d'Q: heat added to the system

Heat capacity (Constant Volume )
For constant volume, the heat capacity is defined as:

C = dU / dT

Heat capacity (Constant Pressure )
For constant pressure, the heat capacity is defined as:

C = d'Q / dT
