An exact differential means that it can be expressed in the form of $dz = Adx + Bdy$ where $A = \partial{z}/\partial{x}$ and $B = \partial{z}/\partial{y}$. An exact differential means that it is path independent. | |

| Oct 1, 2014 at 14:00 | comment | added | shashank js | while deriving the expression for entropy my lecturer used two different operators one in δ and another is d. He also said that since Q and W are path functions he used δ and since entropy is a state function he used d operator can you please tell me the difference...? | |
