deltaU=deltaH+w

Postby Wasila Sun 2I » Wed Feb 17, 2021 6:28 pm

Under what circumstances can we use the delta U=delta H+ w equation? Like what allows delta H to be interchangeable with q?

I think that q and deltaH can be interchangeable when the process involving these values is carried out at constant pressure.

deltaH equals q under constant pressure.

At constant pressure, you can use deltaU = deltaH - P(deltaV) because q=deltaH and w= -P(deltaV).

Must be in constant pressure and a open or closed system.

Constant pressure since qp=deltaH

The context where is in constant pressure. In a biological focus, we can use because reactions happen at constant pressure.

This can be used when the process is under constant pressure.

When the system is at constant pressure, q is equivalent to delta H
