Step 1
Given:
The constant pressure heat capacity of a sample given by:
Cp(JK)=20.17+0.4001T
Initial temperature is 25C or 298K.
Final temperature is 100C or 373K.
Calculation:
(i) At constant pressure:
Change in enthalpy:
q=H=298K373KCpdT
=298K373K(20.17+0.4001T)dT
=(20.17T+0.4001T22)298K373K
=20.17(373298)+0.2000((373)2(298)2)
=1512.75+10065
=11.5×103J
=11.5kJ
Step 2
Work done:
w=pdV
=nRdT
=(1mol)(8.314Jmol K)(373298)K
=0.623×103J
=0.62kJ
From 1-st law of thermodynamics:
U=q+w
=11.5kJ0.62kJ
=10.88kJ
Thus, for constant pressure:
q=11.5kJ
H=11.5kJ
w=0.62kJ
U=10.88kJ
Step 3
(ii) At constant volume
The constant pressure heat capacity of a sample is:
Cp(JK)=20.17+0.4001T
Then, Cr(JK)=Cp(JK)R
=20.17+0.4001T8.314
=11.86+0.4001T
Heat: q=U=298K373KCvdT
=298K373K(11.86+0.4001T)dT

q=H, since pressure is constant
H=t1t1(HJ)=298473{20.17+0.3665(TK)}d(TK)
=(20.17)×(473298)+(0.36652)×(TK)2298473
=(3.530×103)+(2.4725×104)=2.83×104
q=H=2.83×104J=+28.3kJ
w=pcxV[2,8]. where pex=p
w=pV=(pV)[constant pressure]=(nRT)[perfect gas]=nRT
=(1.00mol)×(8.314JK1mol1)×(473K298K)=1.45×103J=1.45kJ
U=q+w=(28.3kJ)(1.45kJ)=+26.8kJ
(b) The energy and enthalpy of a perfect gas depend on temperature alone, hence it does not matter whether the temperature change is brought about at constant volume or constant pressure; H and U are the same.
H=+28.3kJ,U=+26.8kJ
Under constant volume, w=0
q=Uw=+26.8kJ

Step 1
(b) In this excercise we have to calculate q, w, U and H when the temperature is raised from 25C to 100C at constant pressure and at constant volume.
(i)
At constant pressure:
First step is to convert C to K.
We can do it when we add value of degree centigrade to 273.15, so:
T(K)=t(C)+273.15
For 25C:
Ti(K)=25+273.15
=298.15
For 100C:
Tf(K)=100+273.15
=373.15
In case of constant pressure qp=H so we can express H as:
H=TiTfdH=TiτTCpdT=273.15K373.15K{20.17JK1+0.4001JK1T}dT=20.17JK1[T]273.15373.15+0.40012[T2]273.15373.15=20.17JK1[373.15K273.15K]+0.4001JK22[(373.15K)2(273.15K)2]=1.16104J
Step 2
Now we have to convert change in enthalpy to kilojoules. if we know that 1kJ=1000J
H=1.16104J1kJ1000J
=+11.6kJ
Finally, H=+11.6kJ
As qp=H at constant pressure, we now also know value for q and it is equal so:
qp=+11.6kJ
Next step is work done:
NSK
At constant pressure work done can be expressed as:
ω=pV
In this case p=pex because external pressure is constant
ω=pexV=pV=(nRT)=nRT=(1.0mol)(8.314JK1mol1)(373.15K298.15K)=623.55J=0.624kJ
So work done is equal to -0.624kJ
Step 3
(ii)
At constant volume
In this case change in internal energy and enthalpy of a perfect gas is equal to these two at constant pressure because they depends just on temperature
NSK
Therefore:
H=+11.6kJ
Change in internal energy:
U=q+ωω=0work done at constant volume so U=qU=q+ω=(11.6kJ)+(0.624kJ)=+11.0kJ
As ω=0, we come to a conclusion that q=+11.0kJ
