The forward reaction of C (diamond) -> C (graphite) is spontaneous at 298 K

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Gibbs free energy is the maximum possible work given by chemical reactions at constant pressure and temperature. Gibbs free energy can be used to determine the spontaneity of a reaction

If the Gibbs free energy value is <0 (negative) then the chemical reaction occurs spontaneously. If the change in free energy is zero, then the chemical reaction is at equilibrium, if it is> 0, the process is not spontaneous

Free energy of reaction (G) is the sum of its enthalpy (H) plus the product of the temperature and the entropy (S) of the system

Can be formulated: (at any temperature)

 \large{\boxed{\bold{\Delta G=\Delta H-T.\Delta S}}}

or at (25 Celsius / 298 K, 1 atm = standard)

ΔG ° reaction = ΔG ° f (products) - ΔG ° f (reactants)

Under standard conditions:

∆G ° = ∆H ° - T∆S °

The value of °H ° can be calculated from the change in enthalpy of standard formation:

∆H ° (reaction) = ∑H ° (product) - ∑ H ° (reagent)

The value of ΔS ° can be calculated from standard entropy data

∆S ° (reaction) = ∑S ° (product) - ∑ S ° (reagent)

If we look at the standard free Gibbs energy for the transformation from diamond to graphite at 298 K:

∆G ° rxn = -2.90 kJ

then a negative value indicates that reaction

C (diamond) -> C (graphite) occurs spontaneously (forward reaction)

The gibbs free energy of the reaction of diamond to graphite is equal to -2.90 kJ/mol. The free energy is negative which means that the reaction is spontaneous. Therefore, the forward reaction is favored. Hope this helps. Have a nice day.

An atom of hydrogen and an atom of carbon are
LenKa [72]

Answer: -

Organic compounds consisting of only carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms are known as hydrocarbons.

Hydrocarbons are used by us for mainly as a source of energy. Hydrocarbons make up gasoline which is used as fuel in automobiles.

Hydrocarbons depending on the type of unsaturation can be of three types - alkanes, alkenes and alkynes.

What mass in grams of Ag is produced from reaction of 31.75 g of Cu
wariber [46]
<span>Copper metal (Cu) reacts with silver nitrate (AgNO3) in aqueous solution to form Ag and Cu(NO3)2. An excess of AgNO3 is present. The balanced chemical equation is shown below.

Cu + 2AgNO3 ---> Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag

The molar mass of Cu is 63.5 g/mol. The molar mass of Ag is 107.9 g/mol. What mass, in grams, of Ag is produced from reaction of 31.75 g of Cu?

Identify 5 things that would happen if there is not electricity.
Brilliant_brown [7]

If the power is out long enough even the city folks will run out of water. Many homes are all electric, so as soon at the lights are out they have no heat, no hot water and they can't cook. ... If the power is out, gas stations can't pump gas. Once generators run out of gas, those people will be in the dark too.
