A chemical engineer is studying the two reactions shown in the table below.In each case, he fills a reaction vessel with some mixture of the reactants and products at a constant temperature of 134.0 °C and constant totalpressure. Then, he measures the reaction enthalpy AH and reaction entropy AS of the first reaction, and the reaction enthalpy AH and reactionfree energy AG of the second reaction. The results of his measurements are shown in the table.Complete the table. That is, calculate AG for the first reaction and AS for the second. (Round your answer to zero decimal places.) Then, decidewhether, under the conditions the engineer has set up, the reaction is spontaneous, the reverse reaction is spontaneous, or neither forward norreverse reaction is spontaneous because the system is at equilibrium.ΔΗ -188. kJAS-396.KXN,H,(e) + H2(e)2NH, (e)TIC, (e)+2H,0(e) To,(s) + 4HC1(e)4(g) 2H2O(g)AG-k kJWhich is spontaneous?O this reactionO the reverse reactionO neitherAH -70. kJAS==文KAG = 41. kJWhich is spontaneous?O this reactionO the reverse reactionO neitherRG

Coal is used as a fuel in some electric-generating plants. Coal is a complex material, but for simplicity we may consider it to be a form of carbon. The energy that can be derived from a fuel is sometimes compared with the enthalpy of the combustion reaction: C(s)+O2(g)CO2(g) Calculate the standard enthalpy change for this reaction at 25C. Actually, only a fraction of the heat from this reaction is available to produce electric energy. In electric generating plants, this reaction is used to generate heat for a steam engine, which turns the generator. Basically the steam engine is a type of heat engine in which steam enters the engine at high temperature (Th), work is done, and the steam then exits at a lower temperature (Tl). The maximum fraction, f, of heat available to produce useful energy depends on the difference between these temperatures (expressed in kelvins), f = (Th Tl)/Th. What is the maximum heat energy available for useful work from the combustion of 1.00 mol of C(s) to CO2(g)? (Assume the value of H calculated at 25C for the heat obtained in the generator.) It is possible to consider more efficient ways to obtain useful energy from a fuel. For example, methane can be burned in a fuel cell to generate electricity directly. The maximum useful energy obtained in these cases is the maximum work, which equals the free-energy change. Calculate the standard free-energy change for the combustion of 1.00 mol of C(s) to CO2(g). Compare this value with the maximum obtained with the heat engine described here.
Explain why absolute entropies can be measured.
