Chapter 9, Problem 9.59SP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The conditions at which the value of $\Delta E$ is equal to the value of $\Delta H$ needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

The PV work can be calculated as follows:

$w=-P\Delta V$

Here, P is pressure and $\Delta V$ is the change in volume.

It is related to the internal energy and enthalpy as follows:

$\Delta H=\Delta E+P\Delta V$
