Chapter 5: Q 5.88 (page 216)

Express 鈭�螖G掳/鈭�Pin terms of the volumes of solutions of reactants and products, for a chemical reaction of dilute solutes. Plug in some reasonable numbers, to show that a pressure increase of 1 atm has only a negligible effect on the equilibrium constant.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Hence, there is no change in equilibrium constant.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

鈭�螖G掳/鈭�P in terms of the volumes of solutions of reactants and products, for a chemical reaction of dilute solutes.

02

Explanation

The Gibbs free energy is given as:

G=U+PV-TS

The change in Gibbs free energy is:

dG=dU+PdV+VdP-TdS-SdT(1)

Change in energy is given by:

dU=SdT-PdV

Substitute this into (1),

dG=SdT-PdV+PdV+VdP-TdS-SdTdG=VdP-TdS

By changing the pressure,

鈭�G鈭�P=V

Standard change in Gibbs energy:

鈭�螖G掳鈭�P=螖V

03

Explanation

The equilibrium constant is given as:

K=e-螖G掳/RT

Because the volume of the liquid is nearly constant while the pressure increases, the change in volume is small when the pressure changes.

As a result, there is no change in the equilibrium constant.

Imagine that you drop a brick on the ground and it lands with a thud. Apparently the energy of this system tends to spontaneously decrease. Explain why.

Consider a fuel cell that uses methane ("natural gas") as fuel. The reaction is

CH4+2O2鉄�2H2O+CO2

(a) Use the data at the back of this book to determine the values of 螖Hand 螖Gfor this reaction, for one mole of methane. Assume that the reaction takes place at room temperature and atmospheric pressure.

(b) Assuming ideal performance, how much electrical work can you get out of the cell, for each mole of methane fuel?

(c) How much waste heat is produced, for each mole of methane fuel?

(d) The steps of this reaction are

at-electrode:CH4+2H2O鈫�CO2+8H++8e-at-electrode:2O2+8H++8e-鈫�4H2O

What is the voltage of the cell?

Use a Maxwell relation from the previous problem and the third law of thermodynamics to prove that the thermal expansion coefficient (defined in Problem 1.7) must be zero at T=0.

Plumber's solder is composed of 67% lead and 33% tin by weight. Describe what happens to this mixture as it cools, and explain why this composition might be more suitable than the eutectic composition for joining pipes.

The compression factor of a fluid is defined as the ratio PV/NkT; the deviation of this quantity from 1 is a measure of how much the fluid differs from an ideal gas. Calculate the compression factor of a Van der Waals fluid at the critical point, and note that the value is independent of a and b. (Experimental values of compression factors at the critical point are generally lower than the Van der Waals prediction, for instance, 0.227 for H22O, 0.274 for CO22, and 0.305 for He.)
