For the reaction,$2 CO + O_2 \longrightarrow 2 CO_2$; $\Delta H = -560 \ kJ$. Two moles of $CO$ and one mole of $O_2$ are taken in a container of volume $1 \ L$. They completely form two moles of $CO_2$. The gases deviate appreciably from ideal behavior. If the pressure in the vessel changes from $70 \ atm$ to $40 \ atm$,find the magnitude (absolute value) of $\Delta U$ at $500 \ K$. $(1 \ L \ atm = 0.1 \ kJ)$

How much heat in $KJ$ is released during the combustion of $112 \ L$ of water gas at $S.T.P.$? (Water gas is an equimolar mixture of $H_2$ and $CO$)
$H_{2(g)} + \frac{1}{2} O_{2(g)} \rightarrow H_2O_{(g)}; \Delta H = -241.8 \ KJ$
$CO_{(g)} + \frac{1}{2} O_{2(g)} \rightarrow CO_{2(g)}; \Delta H = -283 \ KJ$

Products are favoured in a chemical reaction taking place at a constant temperature and pressure. Consider the following statements: $(i)$ The change in Gibbs energy for the reaction is negative. $(ii)$ The total change in Gibbs energy for the reaction and the surroundings is negative. $(iii)$ The change in entropy for the reaction is positive. $(iv)$ The total change in entropy for the reaction and the surroundings is positive. The statements which are always true are:
