Solution
Relation between ΔH and ΔU
The heat of reaction is given by enthalpy change
ΔH=H2 - H1
by defination H= U+PV
H1=U1+P1V1
H2=U2+P2V2
ΔH = (U1+P1V1) - (U2+P2V2)
=(U2-U1)+(P2V2-P1V1)
=ΔU+(P2V2-P1V1)(∵ΔU=U2-U1)
since PV=nRT
for initial state P1V1=n1RT
for final state P2V2=n2RT
P2V2-P1V1=n2RT-n1RT
=(n2-n)RT
=ΔnRT
where Δn = number of moles of gaseous product - number of moles of gaseous reactant.
| ΔH=ΔU+ΔnRT |
