As learnt in

First law of Thermodynamics -

Energy of universe is always conserved or total energy of an isolated system is always conserved

\Delta E= q + W


 

- wherein

\Delta E= Internal Energy

q= Heat

W= work

 

 and

Reversible Isobaric Process -

W=P\left ( V_{f}-V_{i} \right )
 

- wherein

P_{gas}= constant

Since pressure of gas is defined during whole of the process and hence the process must be reversible

 

 For an isothermal process, \Delta E =0

\Delta H =\Delta E+P\Delta V

\Delta H =P\Delta V = nR\Delta T\ \ \ \ \ \left ( \Delta T=0 \right )

\therefore \Delta H = 0

Option 3)

0

Option 4)

2.49 kJ
