JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2019 - 10th April Evening Slot - No. 7)

The difference between $$\Delta $$H and $$\Delta $$U ($$\Delta $$H – $$\Delta $$U), when the combustion of one mole of heptane(l) is carried out at a temperature T, is equal to :
– 4 RT
3 RT
– 3 RT
4 RT

Explanation

We know,

$$\Delta $$H - $$\Delta $$U = $$\Delta $$ngRT

C7H16($$l$$) + 11O2(g) $$ \to $$ 7CO2(g) + 8H2O($$l$$)

Here $$\Delta $$ng = 7 - 11 = - 4

$$ \therefore $$ $$\Delta $$H - $$\Delta $$U = - 4RT
