Exact additive functor preserves homology
$begingroup$
Let $R$ and $A$ be rings, $T:{}_{R}text{Mod}rightarrow {}_Atext{Mod}$ be an exact additive functor and $(C_bullet,d_bullet)$ a chain complex in ${}_{R}text{Mod}$. Prove that
$$H_n(TC_bullet,Td_bullet)cong TH_n(C_bullet,d_bullet) $$
I know this looks too easy, but I can't do an actual proof of this fact.
The thing is that is easy to prove that $Tker(d_n)cong ker(T d_n)$ and $T text{im}(d_{n+1})cong text{im}(Td_{n+1})$ but this isomorphims are to abstract so I can't prove that the latter isomorphism is a restriction of the former.
Also, I have the feeling that the additive hypothesis is not needed. Is that correct?

I know there is already a question in the site about this. But the solution given there have some problems. For example the equality $F(partial_{n+1})(F(C_{n+1})))=F(partial_{n+1}(C_{n+1}))$ is not true without exactness an even with exactness it is just an isomorphism. So you need to show that this isomorphism relates well with respect to the other isomorphism of the kernel. Otherwise is not true the part $$frac{ker(F(partial_n))}{Im(F(partial_{n+1}))}stackrel{by (1)(2)}{cong}frac{F(ker(partial_n))}{F(Im(partial_{n+1}))}$$.

@WalterSimon we need $Td_i circ Td_{i-1}=0$, for this we need $T$ to map the $0$ map to the $0$ map and again for this we need additivity. But maybe it follows from exactness as well (?)

Thanks to the comments I got with a proof that convince me.
As $T$ is left exact is easy to show that $ker (Td_n)cong Tker (d_n)$ as subobjects of $C_n$. Similarly using both right and left exactness one can prove that $text{im}(Td_{n+1})cong T text{im}(d_{n+1})$ as subobjects of $C_n$.
Therefore we have the diagram
Where $B_n=text{im}(d_{n+1})$, $B_n^T=text{im}(Td_{n+1})$, and so on
Now using the commutative triangles (given by the isomorphism at the level of subobjects) we can prove that $$(TB_nrightarrow TZ_nrightarrow Z_n^Trightarrow C_n)=(TB_nrightarrow B_n^Trightarrow Z_n^Trightarrow C_n)$$
And then as $Z_n^Trightarrow C_n$ is a monomorphism the square is commutative. Then we can finish the proof constructing $TH_ncong H_n^T$ by a diagram chasing or using the universal property of the cokernel.

As $T$ is left exact is easy to show that $ker (Td_n)cong Tker (d_n)$ as subobjects of $C_n$. Similarly using both right and left exactness one can prove that $text{im}(Td_{n+1})cong T text{im}(d_{n+1})$ as subobjects of $C_n$.
Therefore we have the diagram

Now using the commutative triangles (given by the isomorphism at the level of subobjects) we can prove that $$(TB_nrightarrow TZ_nrightarrow Z_n^Trightarrow C_n)=(TB_nrightarrow B_n^Trightarrow Z_n^Trightarrow C_n)$$
And then as $Z_n^Trightarrow C_n$ is a monomorphism the square is commutative. Then we can finish the proof constructing $TH_ncong H_n^T$ by a diagram chasing or using the universal property of the cokernel.
