Answer from: fordd4

The PV work in kilojoules for the reaction is $\boxed{2.29\;{\text{kJ}}}$ .

Further Explanation:

First law of thermodynamics:

The law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but only changes its form and versa.

The internal energy of the system defines the total energy of the system and is sum of enthalpy of the system and work done. Internal energy only depends on the temperature of the system. The mathematical expression of the internal energy is as follows:

${\text{U}} = {\text{H}} + {\text{W}}$

Where,

U is the internal energy of the system.

H is the enthalpy of the system.

W is the work-done.

The formula for workdone by the system is as follows:

${\text{W}} = - {\text{P}}\Delta {\text{V}}$

Where,

P is the pressure in atmosphere.

$\Delta {\text{V}}$ is the change in the volume in liter.

The atmospheric pressure is $1\;{\text{atm}}$ .

The change in volume is $- 22.6\;{\text{L}}$ .

Substitute these values in above equation to calculate the work done by the system.

$\begin{aligned}{\text{W}}&= - {\text{P}}\Delta {\text{V}}\\&= - \left( {1\;{\text{atm}}} \right)\left( { - 22.6\;{\text{L}}} \right)\\&= 22.6\;{\text{L}} \cdot {\text{atm}}\left( {\frac{{0.101325\;{\text{kJ}}}}{{1\;{\text{L}} \cdot {\text{atm}}}}} \right)\\&= 2.2899\;{\text{kJ}}\\\end{aligned}$

The correct answer in 3 significant figures is $2.29\;{\text{kJ}}$ .

Answer from: Quest

definition

entropy is a measure of the randomness or the extent of disorder of a chemical process.

enthalpy is a measure of the heat change of a reaction occurring at a constant pressure.

measurement units:

entropy is measured in joule per kelvin (jk⁻¹) whereas enthalpy is measured in joule per mole (jmol⁻¹)

requirements:

entropy has no requirements or limits, and its change is measured by the division between the heat change of the chemical process and the temperature.

in contrast, enthalpy can only be related to the heat change of the reaction under standard conditions.
