Chapter 11, Problem 11.33P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reaction which is faster and the factor by which it is faster is to be stated if the reactions have same $\Delta H{°}^{\ne }$ but different values of $\Delta S{°}^{\ne }$ at $25°\text{C}$.

Concept introduction:

The Gibbs free energy of a system is defined as the enthalpy of the system minus the product of the temperature times the entropy of the system. The Gibbs free energy of the system is a state function as it is defined in terms of thermodynamic properties that are state functions.
