Consider the following reaction: A2(g) + B₂(g) = 2AB(g) At 502.3 K and total constant pressure of 1.0000 bar we introduce in a container 1.000 mole of A2 and 1.000 mole of B2. Under these conditions, it can be shown that the Gibbs energy of the system as a function of the extent of reaction (x) is given by the following expression: G (x) = (1 − x) (AƒGº (A2) + AƒGº (B2)) + 2x^ƒGº (AB) + 2RT [(1 − x) ln(½½ (1 − x)) + x ln x] where AƒGº (Z) corresponds to the Gibbs energy of formation for Z at temperature 502.3 K. Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant for the following value of the Gibbs energy of formation: AG (A2)=-1.61 kJ mol-1 AG (B2)=-5.96 kJ mol-1 AG° (AB)=-17.30 kJ mol-1 Assume ideal behavior. Be careful with units and conversion factors!
