represent enthalpies, internal energies, pressures and volumes in the initial and final states respectively.
For a reaction involving n
1
moles of gaseous reactants in initial state and n

If H
1
and H

are the enthalpies in initial and final states respectively, then the heat of reaction is given by enthalpy change as
ΔH=H

Mathematical definition of 'H' is H=U+PV
Thus, H

=ΔnRT
where, Δn= [No. of moles of gaseous products] - [No. of moles of gaseous reactants]
∴ΔH=ΔU+ΔnRT
In an isochoric process, the volume remains constant i.e., ΔV=0
Therefore,
ΔH=ΔU
Answer:
− pH = log [H+] ,
[H+] = 10−pH,
by exponentiating both sides with base 10 to "undo"
