Applications of the First Law to ideal gases
What we know
Equation of state pv = RT
du = dq + dw cv dT = dq − pdv
dh = dq + vdp c p dT = dq + vdp
Isothermal vs. Adiabatic
penv = p gas
Lets consider an isothermal expansion dT = 0
Because Internal energy is function
du = cv dT only of temperature, the internal
energy of the gas is unchanged
cv dT = dq − pdv dq = pdv
dq = pdv
isothermal expansion
If we want to integrate dq = pdv
only expansion
work"
dw = − pdv ∫ dw ≠ 0

Constant volume
du = cv dT dh = c p dT c p − cv = R dw = − pdv
dh = dq + vdp dh = dq

Adiabatic process Process in which NO HEAT is
