Constant volume means, no work obtained by object because of volume change is not possible by internal energy change.

As the increase in heat and change in temperature at no change in volume, means there is no any work done. Therefore this supplied heat energy not use and will be present in the gas molecules as its internal energy. Thank you.

According to Maxwell's equation,

dU = TdS - PdV.

So at the constant volume dV = 0.

According to the first law of thermodynamics when the system undergoing a process, dq = du + W.

As we know work transfer is zero in constant volume process.
From above equation if W = 0, Implies Heat supplied = Internal Energy.

So, as you increase the heat supply proportionally internal energy also increases.

Collision between the atoms also be responsible for increase in internal energy. If external energy are supplied.

From first law of thermodynamics,

dq= du + dw and dw = pdv.

At constant volume dw = 0.

So, dq = dw.

dq=dw+du, at constant volume dw=0.

So dq=du if dq increases then du also increases.

In constant volume processes, pressure is changing so temperature is also changing if temperature is changing internal energy also change because internal energy is a function of temperature only.

dQ = dw+du;

Constant vol: w = 0 then,

dQ = du.

If we burn anything in specific volume the temperature will be increased and heat supplied will also be.
