    Latent heat of vaporisation of a liquid at 500 K and 1 atm pressure is 10.0 kcal/mol. What will be the change in internal energy of 3 moles of liquid at same temperature?

    A)  -13.0 kcal                           

    B)  -27.0 kcal

    C)  27.0 kcal                             

    D)  13.0 kcal

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                     Key Idea The relation between \[\Delta H\] and is \[\Delta E\] given by                 \[\Delta H=\Delta E+\Delta {{n}_{g}}RT\] where \[\Delta {{n}_{g}}=\] change in the number of gaseous moles. Vaporisation of 3 moles of water is                 \[3{{H}_{2}}O(l)\xrightarrow{{}}3{{H}_{2}}O(g)\]                                 \[\Delta {{n}_{g}}=3-0=3\] Latent heat of vaporisation =10 kcal/mol So, heat change for 3 moles of water to vapours                 \[=3\times 10=30\] kcal Here,     T = 500 K                 R = 0.002 kcal \[mo{{l}^{-1}}{{K}^{-1}}\]                 \[\Delta H=30\] kcal Put these value in the above relation                 \[30=\Delta E+3\times 0.002\times 500\]                 \[30=\Delta E+3\]                 \[\Delta E=30-3=27\] kcal
