Given the following chemical reaction answer the following questions:
CO(g)+H2O(g)⇌CO2(g)+H2(g) at 25.0°C and 1 atm.
ΔH = −41.0 kJ/mol
ΔS° = −42.3 J/(mol·K)

(Question): What is the value of ΔG (kJ/mol) at 25.0°C and 1 atm? (hint: convert ΔS° to kJ/mol·K)

Respuesta :

The value of ΔG° for the reaction CO(g) + H₂O(g) ⇄ CO₂(g) + H₂(g), when ΔH° = -41.0 kJ/mol and ΔS° = -42.3 J/K*mol, at 25.0°C and 1 atm, is -28.40 kJ/mol.

The reaction is:

CO(g) + H₂O(g) ⇄ CO₂(g) + H₂(g)    (1)

Gibbs free energy for reaction (1) is given by:

[tex] \Delta G^{\circ} = \Delta H^{\circ} - T\Delta S^{\circ} [/tex]

Where:

ΔH°: is the enthalpy of the reaction = -41.0 kJ/mol

ΔS°: is the entropy of the reaction = -42.3 J/K*mol

T: is the temperature = 25.0 °C = 298 K

The value of ΔG° is:

[tex] \Delta G^{\circ} = \Delta H^{\circ} - T\Delta S^{\circ} = -41.0 kJ/mol - 298 K(-42.3 \frac{J}{K*mol}*\frac{1 kJ}{1000 J}) = -28.40 kJ/mol [/tex]

Therefore, the value of ΔG° is -28.40 kJ/mol.
