Relation between Delta H and Delta U
Question

The heat of combustion of solid benzoic acid at constant volume is – 321.30 KJ at 270C. The heat of combustion at constant pressure is

Easy
Solution

\large {C_6}{H_5}COO{H_{(s)}}\; + \;\frac{{15}}{2}{O_2}_{_{(g)}}\; \to \;7C{O_{{2_{(g)}}}}\; + \;3{H_2}{O_{(l)}}\

 


 

Δn(g) = 7-15/2 = -1/2
ΔH = ΔE + Δn(g) RT = -321.30+(-1/2)R x 300

= -321.30-150R
