Question

Derive a relation between ΔH and ΔU for a chemical reaction. Draw neat labelled diagram of calomel electrode. Resistance and conductivity of a cell containing 0.001 M KCI solution at 298K are 1500Ω and 1.46x10-4 S.cm-1 respectively.

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

Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:

Oxidation-reduction reactions are commonly known as redox reactions. They involve transfer of electrons from one species to another. In a spontaneous reaction, energy is released which can be used to do useful work. The reaction is split into two half-reactions. Two different containers are used and a wire is used to drive the electrons from one side to the other and a Voltaic/Galvanic cell is created. It is an electrochemical cell that uses spontaneous redox reactions to generate electricity. A salt bridge also connects to the half-cells. The reading of the voltmeter gives the cell voltage or cell potential or electromotive force. If \[\ce{E^0_{cell}}\] is positive the reaction is spontaneous and if it is negative the reaction is non-spontaneous and is referred to as electrolytic cell. Electrolysis refers to the decomposition of a substance by an electric current. One mole of electric charge when passed through a cell will discharge half a mole of a divalent metal ion such as Cu2+. This was first formulated by Faraday in the form of laws of electrolysis.
The conductance of material is the property of materials due to which a material allows the flow of ions through itself and thus conducts electricity. Conductivity is represented by k and it depends upon nature and concentration of electrolyte, temperature, etc. A more common term molar conductivity of a solution at a given concentration is conductance of the volume of solution containing one mole of electrolyte kept between two electrodes with the unit area of cross-section and distance of unit length. Limiting molar conductivity of weak electrolytes cannot be obtained graphically.
