Kinetics and Half Lives Using Pressure

For a certain first-order gas-hase reaction $$\ce{A \rightarrow B + C}$$ the time required for half of an initial amount of A to decompose is 8.8 min. If the initial pressure of A is 400 mmHg, the ti …

Assuming ideal gas behavior, how can I tell when the change in enthalpy is equal to the chan...

If ideal gas behavior is assumed, for which of the following reactions does $\Delta H = \Delta U$? \begin{align} \tag{a} \ce{N2O4 &-> 2 NO2(g)}\\ \tag{b} \ce{CH4(g) + 2 O2(g) &-> CO2( …

What happens when butane and methane both absorb 100 J of heat?

Two cylinders, one containing 1 mole of $\ce{C4H10}$ gas at $\pu{1 atm}$ and the other containing 1 mole of $\ce{CH4}$ gas at $\pu{1 atm}$, are at $\pu{288 K}$. If each gas absorbs $\pu{100 J}$ of …

Calculating Enthalpy Changes at Different Temperatures

To calculate $\Delta H$, the change in enthalpy at $\mathrm{100^\circ C}$ for the reaction below, one needs what addition information? $$\ce{N2(g) + 3H2(g) -> 2NH3(g)}$$ $\Delta H^\circ = …
