- For each reaction, an equilibrium constant at 298 K is given. Calculate G for each reaction. (a) H+(aq) + OH-(aq)H2O Kc = 1.0 1014 (b) CaSO4(s)Ca2+(aq) + SO42 (aq) Kc = 7.1 105 (c) HIO3(aq)H+(aq) + IO3 (aq) Kc = 1.7 101arrow_forwardHydrogen gas and iodine gas react to form hydrogen iodide. If 0.500 mol H2 and 1.00 mol I2 are placed in a closed 10.0-L vessel, what is the mole fraction of HI in the mixture when equilibrium is reached at 205C? Use data from Appendix C and any reasonable approximations to obtain K.arrow_forwardConsider the following reaction at 298 K: 2SO2(g)+O2(g)2SO3(g) An equilibrium mixture contains O2(g) and SO3(g) at partial pressures of 0.50 atm and 2.0 atm, respectively. Using data from Appendix 4, determine the equilibrium partial pressure of SO2 in the mixture. Will this reaction be most favored at a high or a low temperature, assuming standard conditions?arrow_forward
- Hydrogenation, the addition of hydrogen to an organic compound, is an industrially important reaction. Calculate rH, rS, and rG for the hydrogenation of octene, C8H16, to give octane, C8H19 at 25 C. Is the reaction product- or reactant-favored at equilibrium? C8H16(g) + H2(g) C8H18(g) Along with data in Appendix L, the following information is needed for this calculation.arrow_forward1. A process is spontaneous in the direction that moves it away from equilibrium toward equilibriumarrow_forwardA crucial reaction for the production of synthetic fuels is the production of H2 by the reaction of coal with steam. The chemical reaction is C(s) + H2O(g) CO(g) + H2(g) (a) Calculate rG for this reaction at 25 C, assuming C(s) is graphite. (b) Calculate Kp for the reaction at 25 C.

- Predict whether each of the following processes results in an increase in entropy in the system. (Define reactants and products as the system.) (a) Water vapor condenses to liquid water at 90 C and 1 atm pressure. (b) The exothermic reaction of Na(s) and Cl2(g) forms NaCl(s). (c) The endothermic reaction of H2 and I2 produces an equilibrium mixture of H2(g), I2(g), and HI(g).
