Answer:

The reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction, but in the reverse direction.

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

H2(g) + I2(g) ⇌ 2HI(g)     ΔG° = 2.60 kJ/mol

Temperature = 25°C = 25+273 = 298 Kelvin

The initial pressures are:

pH2 = 3.10 atm

pI2 = 1.5 atm

pHI 1.75 atm

<u>Step 2</u>: Calculate ΔG

ΔG = ΔG° + RTln Q  

with ΔG° = 2.60 kJ/mol

with R = 8.3145 J/K*mol

with T = 298 Kelvin

Q = the reaction quotient → has the same expression as equilibrium constant → in this case Kp = [p(HI)]²/ [p(H2)] [p(I2)]

with pH2 = 3.10 atm

pI2 = 1.5 atm

pHI 1.75 atm

Q = (3.10²)/(1.5*1.75)

Q = 3.661

ΔG = ΔG° + RTln Q  

ΔG = 2600 J/mol + 8.3145 J/K*mol * 298 K * ln(3.661)  

ΔG =5815.43 J/mol = 5.815 kJ/mol

To be spontaneous, ΔG should be <0.

ΔG >>0 so the reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction, but in the reverse direction.

To make 340mL of a 0.4 M solution of Lici, how many mL of a 8 M solution should be used?
ioda

Answer:

Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface, for example, the space that a substance (solid, liquid, gas, or plasma) or shape occupies or contains. Volume is often quantified numerically using the SI derived unit, the cubic metre.
