Heat of reaction at constant volume is identified with _____________ change?

Correct answer: B. Internal energy

  • A. Enthalpy
  • B. Internal energy
  • C. Either A. or B
  • D. Neither A. nor B

Explanation

At constant volume, boundary work is zero, so the heat supplied equals the change in internal energy, qᵥ = ΔU, assuming only pressure-volume work. At constant pressure, the corresponding heat is generally ΔH instead.
