Introduction
Heat is the spontaneous flow of energy from one object to another caused
by a difference in temperature. Work is defined as any other transfer of
energy into or out of the system. Examples of work are: pushing on a
piston, stirring a cup of coffee, passing current through a resistor, etc. In
each case the temperature will rise as the systems energy is increased. We
dont say that the system is being heated because the flow of energy is not
spontaneous.
Heat and work refer to energy in transit. While we can talk about how
much energy is in a system, talking about how much work is in a system is
meaningless.

Inexact Differentials
Well use
dQ, and
dW to denote infinitesimal changes. Thus we will write
4E = Q + W ,
or
dE =
dQ +
dW .
Where Q,
dQ are negative if heat leaves the system, W ,
dW are negative
if work is done by the system. Many authors write
dQ and
dW to denote
inexact differentials, and to emphasize that there is no function Q or W to
take the differential of. That is Q and W are not state functions.

Heat Capacity
The heat capacity of an object is the energy transfer by heating per unit
temperature change. That is,

If we examine the expressions for heat capacity, apart from the quantity
held constant, we see that the expression for Cp contains an extra term. It
isnt too difficult to figure out what is going on. Most materials expand
when they are heated. The additional term keeps track of the work done
on the rest of the universe as the system expands.

and the result follows. (Note, as promised I have shown that E = E (T )
for an ideal gas.)

Our result is true for a monatomic gas, for a diatomic gas the internal
energy is 52 NkT and for a polyatomic gas it is 62 NkT - this is because the
individual particles have more degrees of freedom and the average energy
per molecule is kT
2 per degree of freedom. We have to consider rotational
kinetic energy in diatomic and polyatomic molecules.

The ratio of heat capacities at constant volume and pressure is equal to the
ratio of specific heats under the same conditions as the amount of material
is eliminated when we form the ratio. Thus we can write the ratio as

The values of are then 5/3 (monatomic gas), 7/5 (diatomic gas) and
4/3 (polyatomic gas).

We now explore the the relationship between latent heat and enthalpy.

Some books like to use to use the latent heat per molecule, I prefer to use
the latent heat per unit mass. The reason isnt deep, latent heats per unit
mass are easier to find! The definitions that I have given for latent heat
are ambiguous. (In the same way that the definition for heat capacity was
ambiguous). By convention, we assume that latent heats are calculated
under conditions of constant pressure, and normally that that pressure is
one atmosphere. Constant pressure processes are common enough that we
introduce a new variable to simplify calculations under constant pressure
conditions. That quantity is enthalpy.

Enthalpy and latent heat are simply related. The latent heat of
vaporization Lv is defined as the difference in enthalpy between a fixed
mass of vapor and the same mass of liquid. That is Lv = Hvap Hliq.
Similarly, the latent heat of fusion is given by Lf = Hliq Hsol , and the
latent heat of sublimations is given by Ls = Hvap Hsol . These enthalpy
differences are related through Ls = Lf + Lv . We shall explore these
relationships further when we study phase transitions and the
Clausius-Clapeyron equation later.
