Question:

In a constant-volume calorimeter, \(1 \mathrm{~mol}\) of trinitrotoluene (TNT) on explosion produces \(3 \mathrm{~mol}\) of \(\mathrm{CO}\) and \(2 \mathrm{~mol}\) of \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\). When \(0.1572 \mathrm{~g}\) TNT are exploded at \(37^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), the heat evolved is 450 cal. Calculate \(\Delta U\) and \(\Delta H\) if \(1 \mathrm{~mol}\) of TNT explodes at \(27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\).
