The decomposition of crystalline N2O5

N2O5(s)?2NO2(g)+12O(g)

is an example of a reaction that is thermodynamically favored even though it absorbs heat. At 25 ?C we have the following values for the standard state enthalpy and free energy changes of the reaction:

Delta H = +109.6 kJ/mol

Delta Standard Gibbs Free Energy = -30.5 kJ/mol 

 

C) Calculate delta U for this reaction at 25 C. 

The decomposition of crystalline N¿O5
NeOs(S)→ 2NO2(g) + 어(미)
is an example of a reaction that is thermodynamically favored even
though it absorbs heat. At 25 °C we have the following values for the
standard state enthalpy and free energy changes of the reaction:
AH° = +109.6 kJ/mol
AG° = -30.5 kJ/mol
(a) Calculate AS° at 25 °C.
(b) Why is the entropy change so favorable for this reaction?
(c) Calculate AU° for this reaction at 25 °C.
(d) Why is AH° greater than AU?
