Please help me to derive that #((delS)/(delT))_P = C_P/T# and #((delS)/(delT))_V = C_V/T#?

Okay, so I will assume you know or can figure out the Maxwell relations. Those are a common starting point. Furthermore, you have by definition that
Recall that
#dG = dH - d(TS)#
#= dH - SdT - TdS#
(use product rule)
Now, for the first derivation, you can divide through by
#((delG)/(delT))_P = ((delH)/(delT))_P - cancel(S((delT)/(delT))_P)^(1) - T((delS)/(delT))_P#
where the third term goes to
#1# because#T# does not change with respect to#T# ; it is one-to-one with itself.
By definition,
Next, recall that for the natural variables
#dG = -SdT + VdP# #" "" "" "bb((3))#
We do not yet know what
#((delG)/(delT))_P = -S# #" "" "" "bb((4))#
Therefore. plugging
#cancel(-S) = C_P - cancel(S) - T((delS)/(delT))_P#
It follows that if
A similar process follows for deriving
#A = U - TS# ,
take the derivative to get:
#dA = dU - SdT - TdS#
Almost like before, divide by
#((delA)/(delT))_V = ((delU)/(delT))_V - Scancel(((delT)/(delT))_V)^(1) - T((delS)/(delT))_V#
We know by definition that
So from the Maxwell relation:
#dA = -SdT - PdV#
we have that:
#((delA)/(delT))_V = -S# ,
so plugging back into the main equation, we get:
#cancel(-S) = C_V - cancel(S) - T((delS)/(delT))_V#
Since
