The definition of enthalpy and the perfect gas equation of state can be used to estimate the standard enthalpy of ionization or electron gain and the corresponding change in internal energy. (a) Starting from Kirchhoff's law, and remembering that the molar constant-pressure heat capacity of aperfect gas is (5)/(2)R, derive an expression for the difference betweenthe change in enthalpy and change in internal energy for a gas-phase process if all species behave as if perfect gases.
