Obtain the relationship between ΔH and ΔU for gas phase reactions.
Derive the relation between ΔH and ΔU for a gaseous phase reaction.

Solution
At constant pressure, ΔH and ΔU are related as,
ΔH = ΔU + PΔV ...(1)
For reactions involving gases, ΔV cannot be neglected.
Therefore, ΔH = ΔU + PΔV
= ΔU + P(V2 – V1)
= ΔU + PV2 – PV1 ...(2)
Where V1 is the volume of gas-phase reactants, and V2 is that of the gaseous products.
We assume the reactant and product behave ideally. Applying the ideal gas equation, PV = nRT. Suppose that n1 moles of gaseous reactants produce n2 moles of gaseous products. Then,
PV1 = n1RT and PV2 = n2RT ...(3)
Substitution of equation (3) into equation (2) yields:
ΔH = ΔU + n2RT – n1RT
= ΔU + (n2 – n1) RT
= ΔU + Δng RT ...(4)
Where, Δng is the difference between the number of moles of products and those of reactants.
