Chapter 6: Q. 11 P (page 169)

Which reaction is likely to be more exergonic, one with Keq=1000 or one with Keq= 0.001?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The reaction in which Keq=1000 is more exergonic.

Step by step solution

01

Spontaneous reaction

Reactions that proceed without an external energy supply are called a spontaneous reaction.

For a reaction to be spontaneous, it needs to have a negative value of Gibbs free energy.

Also, for the reaction to be spontaneous, the value of needs to be positive

02

Relation between Keq and exergonic reaction

WhenKeq greater than 1, the energy is out in the reaction,which means the reaction is exergonic.

When Keq is less than 1, the energy is out in the reaction,which means the reaction is endergonic.

The above reaction Keq=1000, is more exergonic.

Despite the limitations of radical chlorination of alkanes, the reaction is still useful for synthesizing certain halogenated compounds. For which of the following compounds does radical chlorination give a single monochloro product?

2-Chloro-2-methylpropane reacts with water in three steps to yield 2-methyl-2-propanol. The first step is slower than the second, which in turn is much slower than the third. The reaction takes place slowly at room temperature, and the equilibrium constant is approximately 1.

  1. Give approximate values for螖骋卤 and 螖骋othat are consistent with the above information.
  2. Draw an energy diagram for the reaction, labeling all points of interest and making sure that the relative energy levels on the diagram are consistent with the information given.

Radical chlorination of pentane is a poor way to prepare 1-chloropentane, but radical chlorination of neopentane,CH34C, is a good way to prepare neopentyl chloride,CH33CCH2Cl. Explain.
