\end{equation}
To evaluate the last term on the RHS let's assum we are dealing with a monatomic ideal gas. Then
\begin{equation}
P = \left(\gamma - 1\right)\epsilon
\rho = RT \rho.
\end{equation}
where R is the ideal gas constant.
The first law of thermodynamics says that the change in internal energy $\epsilon$ plus the work done on the gas is equal to the heat added,
\begin{equation}
dQ = d\epsilon + PdV.
...
For an ideal gas
\begin{align}
d\epsilon &= \frac{R}{\gamma -1}dT \\
PdV &= -\left(\gamma -1\right)\epsilon \frac{d \rho}{\rho}
= RT
\end{align}
