For a process at constant pressure, ΔH=q.
My textbook clearly says that the only way that enthalpy can change is with a change in temperature. So ΔH=0. But q≠0 for an isothermal process.
I know that ΔU=0 for an isothermal process. So ΔH=0+Δ(PV)=Δ(nRT)=0
It really seems like ΔH should...

Hello
My story
Till today, I had never imagined that the High Heat Value (HHV) of fuels or their Lower Heat Value (LVH) have themselves (at least) two variants:
- the constant volume heat value
- the constant pressure heat value
These quantities can be most directly measured in...
i have a rather silly question involving PV = nRT and Charles's Law.
Charles's Law states that the volume of a fixed amount of gas maintained at constant pressure is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.
I'm wondering about how do you maintain a constant pressure of...

Dear Forum members,
I have a bit confusion about the "Specific Heat at constant pressure".
Normally it only varies with the temperature (As given by many book at their Appendixs). But these values are only given at 1 atm pressure and with a wide range of temperature. Most of the books...

I've read that:
specific heat capacity at constant pressure = dU-W / m. dT
dU = change in internal energy
W = work done
m = mass of gas
dT = change in temperature

However, shouldn't the right hand side equate to specific heat capacity at...

if i was to heat a gas [any gas] by 10 degrees celcius, using the smallest amount of heat energy, would i be better off heating the gas at constant pressure or constant volume. i think constant pressure, however i don't know how to justify my answer...:confused:

If I apply 200 J of energy as heat to 4 moles of an ideal gas at constant pressure and the temperature rises by 4 K, then the molar heat capacity at constant pressure will be
Cp = Q / (n * deltaT) = 200 / (4 x 4) = 12.5 J K mol
Am I on the right lines here?
Can someone confirm if my understanding of heat capacity is correct - particulary at constant volume and pressure?
My understanding is that for a system to experience a rise in temperature either its pressure or its volume must remain constant. If either of these is allowed to expand...

Find the work done by a gas when it is expanded from a volume of 1.0 L to 3.3 L at a constant pressure of 2.8 atm.
I converted the atm to Pascals by multiplying 2.8 x 101325 to get 283710.
Then I used the formula W=p(deltaV)
so 283710 x (3.3-1.0) = 652533

My textbook derived the equation ΔH = ΔE + ΔnRT (H is enthalpy, E is internal energy (heat exchanged + work )) from the fact that ΔH = ΔE + PΔV at constant pressure. This derivation, however, requires that temperature be constant; otherwise, the resulting equation would be ΔH = ΔE + ΔnRΔT (ΔT...
