Remember: ! is 2nd function natural log (ln) on calculator and work inside out. Open system energy and matter can transfer. Heat capacity amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a certain amount of material by 1 c or 1 k.

That is, in any process energy can be changed from one form to another; but, it can never be created nor destroyed.
