Assuming that water vapour is an ideal gas, the internal energy change `(DeltaU)` when 1 mole of water is vaporised at `1 ba r` pressure and` 100^(@)C, (` given`:` molar enthalpy of vaporization of water `41kJ mol^(-1)` at `1 ba r` and `373 K ` and `R=8.3 J mol^(-1)K^(-1))` will be `:`

A

`3.7904 kJ mol^(-1)`

B

`41 kJ mol^(-1)`

C

`37.904 kJ mol^(-1)`

D

`4.1 kJ mol^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Thermochemical equation is
`H_(2) O (1) rarr H_(2) O (g)`
Since water vapor is assumed to be an ideal gas, we have
`Delta H = Delta U + Delta n_(g) RT`
or `Detla U = Delta U = DeltaH - Delta n(g) RT`
`Delta n(g) = sum n_(p) (g) - sum n_(R) (g)`
`(1 mol) - (0 mol)`
`1 mol`
`:. Delta U = (41) - (1) (8.3 xx 10^(-3)) (373)`
`= (41) - (3.096)`
`= 37.904 kJ mol^(-1)`
Note that we need to convert `R` in kilojoules as `Delta H` is given in kilojoules.
