- Thermodynamics provides a way to interpret everyday occurrences. If you live in northern climates, one common experience is that during early winter, snow falls but then melts when it hits the ground. Both the formation and the melting happen spontaneously. How can thermodynamics explain both of these seemingly opposed events?arrow_forwardThe decomposition of diamond to graphite [C(diamond) C(graphite)] is thermodynamically favored, but occurs slowly at room temperature. a. Use fG values from Appendix L to calculate rG and Keq for the reaction under standard conditions and 298.15 K. b. Use fH and S values from Appendix L to estimate rG and Keq for the reaction at 1000 K. Assume that enthalpy and entropy values are valid at these temperatures. Does heating shift the equilibrium toward the formation of diamond or graphite? c. Why is the formation of diamond favored at high pressures? d. The phase diagram shows that diamond is thermodynamically favored over graphite at 20,000 atmospheres pressure (about 2 GPa) at room temperature. Why is this conversion actually done at much higher temperatures and pressures?arrow_forwardTwo crystalline forms of white phosphorus are known. Both forms contain P4 molecules, but the molecules are packed together in different ways. The form is always obtained when the liquid freezes. However, below 76.9C, the form spontaneously converts to the form: P4(s,)P4(s,) a. Predict the signs of H and S for this process. b.
