Re: U = 3/2 nRT

I don't think you will have to answer a question using that equation, but like the answer above states, it's helpful to see the relationship between U and T (the only nonconstants in the equation).

Re: Enthalpy vs. Entropy

Entropy is a measure of disorder or randomness of a system. Enthalpy is defined as the sum of internal energy of a system and the product of the pressure and volume of the system.
