First law of thermo dynamics
Question

 Statement I: For an isothermal reversible process, q=-w i.e. work done by the system equals the heat absorbed by the system.
Statement II : Enthalpy change (ΔH) is zero for isothermal process.

Moderate
Solution

From First law of Thermodynamics , \Delta E=q+W

For isothermal process , \Delta T=0 ; \Delta E=0

                         q+W=0 ; q = - W

\Delta H = n{C_p}\Delta T

For isothermal process , \Delta T=0 , \therefore \Delta H=0
