Chapter 17, Problem 109CP

Consider the system

$\text{A}\left(g\right)\to \text{B}\left(g\right)$

at25°C.

a. Assuming that $G_{\text{A}}^{\text{o}}=8996\text{J/mol}$and $G_{\text{B}}^{\text{o}}=11,718\text{J/mol}$, calculate the value of the equilibrium constant for this reaction.

b. Calculate the equilibrium pressures that result if 1.00 mole of A(g) at 1.00 atm and 1.00 mole of B(g) at 1.00 atm are mixed at 25°C.

c. Show by calculations that ∆G = 0 at equilibrium.
