Review

In Equation 14-20 the quantity $c$ is the specific heat of the substance. For an ideal gas we usually write the internal energy $U$ in terms of the number of moles of gas present rather than the amount of mass. We follow the same approach for the quantity of heat $Q$ , so we write

The quantity $C$ in Equation 15-10 is called the molar specific heat of the substance (in the case we're discussing, an ideal gas). It has units of joules per mole per kelvin or $\mathrm{J}\ /\ (\mathrm{mol}\cdot\mathrm{K})$ .
