→ For isothermal process, ΔT = 0, for isobaric process ΔP = 0 and for isochoric process ΔV = 0.
At constant pressure, Cp = \(\left(\frac{\Delta H}{\Delta T}\right)_P\)
At constant volume Cv = \(\left(\frac{\Delta U}{\Delta T}\right)_V\)

→ Cp - Cv = R (gas constant).

→ ΔU is determined by Bomb calorimeter,
