Two moles of an ideal gas expand isothermally and reversibly from 1 litre to 10 litre at 300K, The enthalpy change (in kJ) for the processis

Answer»

11.4 kJ
`-11.4kJ`
`0 kJ`
`4.8 kJ`

Solution :`DeltaH =DELTA( U + PV) = DeltaU + Delta(RT) =DeltaU + R DeltaT`
Forisothermal expansion of ideal gas, `DeltaU = 0`
`( :' DeltaU =C_(v) DeltaT ` and `DeltaT =0)`
`:. DeltaH =0 +0, i.e., DeltaH =0`
or putting `DeltaU = C_(v) DeltaT , DeltaH = C_(v) DeltaT + R DeltaT`
`= (C_9v) +R) DeltaT = C_(p) DeltaT` for 1 mole.
For N moles, `DeltaH = n C_(p) DletaT =0`
