Chapter 17, Problem 17.31E
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The energy A or G having the higher absolute value is to be predicted on the basis of statistical thermodynamic definitions.

Concept introduction:

Gibbs free energy gives the value of the maximum reversible amount of work done by system at a condition of constant temperature and pressure. It is a state function.

Helmholtz energy gives the value of the maximum amount of work done by system at a condition of constant volume. It is a state function.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The energy E or G having the higher absolute value is to predicted on the basis of statistical thermodynamic definitions and the reason for the same is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Internal energy is defined as the total energy contained in a system. Its absolute value cannot be measured directly. It is a state function.

Gibbs free energy gives the value of the maximum reversible amount of work done by system at a condition of constant temperature and pressure. It is a state function.

Using reaction free energy to predict equilibrium composition Consider the following equilibrium: 2NOCI (g) 2NO (g) + Cl2 (g) AGº =41. kJ Now suppose a reaction vessel is filled with 4.50 atm of nitrosyl chloride (NOCI) and 6.38 atm of chlorine (C12) at 212. °C. Answer the following questions about this system: ? rise Under these conditions, will the pressure of NOCI tend to rise or fall? x10 fall Is it possible to reverse this tendency by adding NO? In other words, if you said the pressure of NOCI will tend to rise, can that be changed to a tendency to fall by adding NO? Similarly, if you said the pressure of NOCI will tend to fall, can that be changed to a tendency to rise by adding NO? yes no If you said the tendency can be reversed in the second question, calculate the minimum pressure of NO needed to reverse it. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. 0.035 atm ✓ G 00. 18 Ar
