Practice question

**Specific heat capacity** c = Q/(m ΔT) (J/kg·K), molar C = Q/(n ΔT), heat required to raise temperature, Q = m c ΔT, for water c=4186 J/kg·K, latent heat L = Q/m for phase change at constant temperature, fusion L_f and vaporization L_v, Q = m L, e.g., ice melting L_f=3.34×10⁵ J/kg, water vaporization 2.26×10⁶ J/kg. C_p - C_v = R . C_p = C_v + R = 12.45 + 8.3 = 20.75 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ . Using first law ΔU = Q - W, W = ∫ P dV, isobaric W = P ΔV, isothermal W = n R T ln(V₂/V₁), adiabatic P V^γ
