Fundamentals of Partial Differentiation of the Exact Differential Equation

Carrying out partial differentiation of the Exact Differential Equation of M and N with respect to z and y, respectively, results in:


dx is a perfect differential when the above equation is satisfied for any function x.

Similarly, if y = y(x, z) and z = z(x, y), then from these two relations, we have:



In terms of p, v and T, the following relation holds true:
