Q.

ΔvapHΘ for water is + 40.79 kJ mol-1 at 1 bar and 100°C. Change in internal energy for this vapourisation under same condition is ________ kJ mol-1. (Integer answer)

 

(Given R = 8.3 JK-1 mol-1)                                                   [2024]


Ans.

H2O(l)H2O(g)

Δng=Gaseous moles of products-Gaseous moles of reactants

         =1-0=1

ΔH=ΔU+ΔngRT

40.79kJmol-1=ΔU+1×8.3JmolK×373K

40.79kJmol-1=ΔU+1×8.31000kJmolK×373K

ΔU=37.69kJmol-138kJmol-1
