Show that Cp = T(∂S/∂T)p and Cv = T(∂S/∂T)V
ANSWER:
Heat capacity:
It is a physical property of a matter, which can be calculated by the ratio of change in heat to the change in temperature. That is:
It is of two types:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now,
To prove:
Proof:
From thermodynamics:
dQ = TdS
From the formula of Cp:
From both equation:
(Proved)
