Question

For combustion of one mole of magnesium in an open container at 300 K and 1 bar pressure, ΔcH=601.70 kJ mol1, the magnitude of change in internal energy for the reaction is ____ kJ.
(Nearest integer)
(Given : R=8.3 J K1mol1)

Open in App
Solution

Mg(s)+12O2(g)MgO(s)

ΔH=ΔU+ΔngRT

Δng=12

601.70=ΔU12(8.3)(300)×103

ΔU=601.70+1.245

ΔU600 kJ

Magnitude of change in internal energy is 600 kJ.
