Difference between Pdv and Vdp (Or) Difference between close system work and open system work

Difference between Pdv and Vdp (Or) Difference between close system work and open system work Hello guys, I was also irritated from these two terms during college time. These two terms are coming from work done used in the equation of first law of thermodynamics. dW = F.ds = (p.A).ds = p.(A.ds) = p.dV (close system)                 Here, pressure remains constant while volume changes throughout the process. This equation is valid for a closed system which doesn’t support mass transfer.                    For example, a piston-cylinder arrangement .
