  2. The standard free energy value is -257.2kJ.

Step by step solution

01

Definition of Concept

Solubility: The maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in the solvent at equilibrium is defined as solubility.

Constant of soluble product: For equilibrium between solids and their respective ions in a solution, the solubility product constant is defined. In general, the term "solubility product" refers to water-equilibrium insoluble or slightly soluble ionic substances.

Predict the signs of ΔS° ,ΔH° and Explain 

(a)

Considering the given information:

The chemical equation for the formation of CO2(g) from its elements is shown below:

CO(g)+12O2(g)→CO2(g)

According to the above equation, one mole of CO2is formed from its elements CO2 in their standard states.

Predicting entropy Δ³§Â°system:

1,12moles of gaseous reactants are converted into one mole of gaseous product in this reaction.

Δ³§rxn0=SProducts0-Sreactants0Δ³§rxn°=1-2Δ³§rxn°=-1

Because the number of moles of gas decreases from reactants to products, the reaction entropy Δ³§Â°is negative.

Enthalpy as a predictor of Δ±árxno:

The oxidation of carbon monoxide CO requires an initial energy input to start the reaction but then releases energy that is exothermic and has a negative enthalpy Δ±árxno.

03

Calculate   ΔG°by two different methods

(b)

Considering the given information:

The chemical equation for the formation of CO2(g)from its elements is shown below:

CO(g)+12O2(g)→CO2(g)

1st method:

Calculate Δ³Òrxno from Δ³Òfovalues of products and reactants,

The Gibbs free energy equation is as follows:

Δ³Òrxn°=∑mΔ³Òf°(Products)-∑nΔ³Òf°(Reactants)

The reaction's free energy change is calculated as follows:

Δ³Òrxno=[(1molCO2) (Δ³ÒfoofCO2)]-[(1molCO)(Δ³ÒfoofCO)+(1/2molO2)(Δ³ÒfoofO2)]Δ³Òrxn°=[(2mol)(-394.4kJ/mol)]-[(2mol)(-137.2kJ/mol)+(1/2molO2)(0kJ/mol)]

Δ³Òrxno=-257.2kJ

As a result, the standard free energy value is Δ³Òrxno=-257.2_kJ.

2nd Method

Given the reaction,

CO(g)+12O2(g)→CO2(g)

Calculate Δ³Òrxnofrom Δ±árxnoand Δ³§rxno at 298K

The change in standard enthalpy is,

The enthalpy change for the reaction is calculated as follows:

Δ±árxn°=∑mΔ±áf(Products)°-∑nΔ±áf(reactants)°Δ±árxno=[(1molCOO2)(Δ±árxnoofCO2)]-[(1molCO)(Δ±árxnoofCO)+(1/2molO2)(Δ±árxnoofO2)]Δ±árxno=[(1molCO)2)(-393.5kJ/mol)]-[(1molCO)(-110.5kJ/mol)+(1/2molOO2)(0kJ/mol)]Δ±árxno=-283.0kJ

The enthalpy change is negative.

As a result, the enthalpy (Δ±árxn°)valueis-283.0kJ

Entropy change Δ³§system°

The standard entropy change equation is,

Δ³§rxn°=∑mSProducts°-∑nSreactants°

The stoichiometric co-efficient are (m) and (n).

Δ³§rxn°=[(2molCO2)(SoofCO2)]-[(1molCO)(SoofCO)+(1/2molO2)(SoofO2)]Δ³§rxn°=°Ú(1³¾´Ç±ô°ä°¿2)(213.7´³/³¾´Ç±ô×°­)±Õ-°Ú(1³¾´Ç±ô°ä°¿)(197.5´³/³¾´Ç±ô×°­)+(1/2molO2)(205.0´³/³¾´Ç±ô×°­)]Δ³§rxn°=-86.3J/K

Therefore, the (Δ³§rxn°)of the reaction is -86.3JJ/K

Next, compute the change in free energy Δ³Òrxno

Standard The equation for free energy change is,

Δ³Òrxno=Δ±árxno-TΔ³§rxno

Free energy change Δ³Òfo

Enthalpy and entropy values calculated are

Δ±árxno=-283.0kJΔ³§rxn°=-283.0kJ

These values are entered into the standard free energy equation,

Δ³Òrxno=-283.0kJ-[(298K)(-86.3J/K)(1kJ/103J)]Δ³Òrxno=-257.2826kJ

Therefore, the standard free energy value is Δ³Òrxno=-257.3kJ_.
