hey mate your answer is here........
Heat capacity or thermal capacity is a physical property of matter, defined as the amount of heat to be supplied to a given mass of a material to produce a unit change in its temperature. The SI unit of heat capacity is joule per kelvin. Heat capacity is an extensive property.
The heat capacity at constant pressure CP is greater than the heat capacity at constant volume CV , because when heat is added at constant pressure, the substance expands and work. ... dU = CV dT and CV = dU dT . When heat is added at constant pressure, we have QP = CP △T = △U + W = △U + P △V .

For an ideal gas at constant pressure, it takes more heat to achieve the same temperature change than it does at constant volume. At constant volume all the heat added goes into raising the temperature. At constant pressure some of the heat goes to doing work.
