JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2017 - 8th April Morning Slot - No. 23)

For a reaction, A(g) $$ \to $$ A($$\ell $$); $$\Delta $$H= $$-$$ 3RT.
The correct statement for the reaction is :
$$\Delta $$H = $$\Delta $$U $$ \ne $$ O
$$\Delta $$H = $$\Delta $$U = O
$$\left| {} \right.$$$$\Delta $$H$$\left| {} \right.$$ < $$\left| {} \right.$$$$\Delta $$U$$\left| {} \right.$$
$$\left| {} \right.$$$$\Delta $$H$$\left| {} \right.$$ > $$\left| {} \right.$$$$\Delta $$U$$\left| {} \right.$$

Explanation

Given reaction,

A(g)  $$ \to $$  A($$l$$) ;

We know,

$$\Delta $$H = $$\Delta $$V + $$\Delta $$ng RT

Given, $$\Delta $$H = $$-$$3RT

From reaction,

$$\Delta $$ng = 0$$-$$ 1 = $$-1$$

$$\therefore\,\,\,$$ $$\Delta $$H = $$\Delta $$U $$-$$ RT

$$ \Rightarrow $$ $$\,\,\,$$ $$-$$ 3RT = $$\Delta $$U $$-$$ RT

$$ \Rightarrow $$$$\,\,\,$$ $$\Delta $$U = $$-$$ 2RT

$$\therefore\,\,\,$$ $$\left| {\Delta U} \right|$$ = 2RT

and $$\left| {\Delta H} \right|$$ = 3RT

$$\therefore\,\,\,$$ $$\left| {\Delta H} \right|$$ > $$\left| {\Delta U} \right|$$
