the enthalpy change ,del H ,due to reversible adiabatic expansion of an ideal gas from p1,v1,t1 to p2,v2,t2 is?

Dear student
Please find the solution to the asked query:

Enthalpy H is given by H=U +PVThus In moving from states P1 toP2 and V1 toV2 the enthalpy change is given by :H =U +PVthat is H =U +PV+VPFor an adiabatic processq=0, so from the first law of thermodynamics we haveU =q+w =q-PVU =w=-PVWhen we substitute this in the first equation we get:H =VP
or 
H =V(P2-P1)
