हिन्दीConsider the following chemical reactions and statements regarding \( \Delta H \) and \( \Delta U \) at constant temperature: (A) For the reaction \( \text{C}(s) + \text{O}_2(g) \rightarrow \text{CO}_2(g) \), \( \Delta n_g = 0 \), therefore \( \Delta H = \Delta U \). (B) For the reaction \( \text{N}_2(g) + 3\text{H}_2(g) \rightarrow 2\text{NH}_3(g) \), \( \Delta n_g = -2 \), therefore \( \Delta H < \Delta U \). (C) For the reaction \( \text{PCl}_5(g) \rightarrow \text{PCl}_3(g) + \text{Cl}_2(g) \), \( \Delta n_g = +1 \), therefore \( \Delta H > \Delta U \). (D) For an isochoric process with no non-expansion work, \( \Delta U = q_v \). How many of the above statements are correct?
Correct answer · Option 4
All four
Explanation
All four statements are correct based on \( \Delta H = \Delta U + \Delta n_g RT \) and the condition \( \Delta U = q_v \) at constant volume.
