    <li>Describe how a swinging pendulum that slows with time illustrates the first law of thermodynamics.</li>
    <li>When air is pumped into a bicycle tire, the air is compressed. Assuming that the volume is constant, express the change in internal energy in terms of q and w.</li>
    <li>What is the relationship between enthalpy and internal energy for a reaction that occurs at constant pressure?</li>
    <li>An intrepid scientist placed an unknown salt in a small amount of water. All the salt dissolved in the water, and the temperature of the solution dropped several degrees.</li>

    <li>The enthalpy of combustion (&Delta;H<sub>comb</sub>) is defined thermodynamically as the enthalpy change for complete oxidation. The complete oxidation of hydrocarbons is represented by the following general equation: hydrocarbon + O<sub>2</sub>(g) &rarr; CO<sub>2</sub>(g) + H<sub>2</sub>O(g). Enthalpies of combustion from reactions like this one can be measured experimentally with a high degree of precision. It has been found that the less stable the reactant, the more heat is evolved, so the more negative the value of &Delta;Hcomb. In each pair of hydrocarbons, which member do you expect to have the greater (more negative) heat of combustion? Justify your answers.</li>

    <p>In some simple case, when a reaction only involves solids, liquids or liquid solution, we can say that <span style="text-align:justify;">$&Delta;H=&Delta;U$.
