Exact & Inexact Differentials in Chemical Thermodynamics

In this video terms exact and inexact differential are explained in detail with reference to state functions and path functions in chemical thermodynamics. It is explained that differential is an infinitesimally small change in the value of a thermodynamic quantity. The differential of a state function is called as exact differential where as differential of a path function is called as inexact differential. it is also explained that a thermodynamic process is considered to be made up of large number of small steps and total change in the value of a thermodynamics quantity during this process can be calculated by integration if and only if it is a state function. The total change in the value of a path function cannot be calculated with the help of integration.
