Q. Calculate change in internal energy if $\Delta H=- 92.2\, kJ,\, P = 40\, atm$ and $\Delta V= -1\,L.$

AIIMSAIIMS 2007Thermodynamics

Solution:

$\Delta H=\Delta E+P\Delta V$

$\Delta E=\Delta H-P\Delta V=-92.2-40\times\left(-1\right)\times101\times10^{-3}$

$=-92.2+4.04=-88.16\,kJ \approx-88\,kJ.$
