Answer : The value of K_{eq} is, 0.5 and \Delta G= positive.

Explanation :

The unimolecular reaction is:

A\rightarrow B

In unimolecular reaction, the starting material is 2 times to the product.

A=2B      .........(1)

As we know that:

K_{eq}=\frac{B}{A}     ...........(2)

Now substitute equation 1 in 2, we get:

K_{eq}=\frac{\frac{A}{2}}{A}

K_{eq}=0.5

Now we have to calculate the value of \Delta G^o at 298 K.

\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K_{eq}

where,

\Delta G^o = standard Gibbs free energy = ?

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = temperature = 298 K

K_{eq} = equilibrium constant = 0.5

Now put all the given values on the above formula, we get:

\Delta G^o=-(8.314J/mol.K)\times (298K)\ln (0.5)

\Delta G^o=1717.32J/mol

Thus, the value of \Delta G^o at 298 K is, 1717.32 J/mol

As we know that:

\Delta G= +ve, reaction is non spontaneous

\Delta G= -ve, reaction is spontaneous

\Delta G= 0, reaction is in equilibrium

Thus, the \Delta G= +ve. So, the reaction is non spontaneous.

A gas mixture with 4 mol of Ar, x moles of Ne, and y moles
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

a) \Delta G_{mixing}=\frac{R*T}{12}*[4*ln (1/3) +x*ln (x/12) +(8-x)*ln ((8-x)/12)]

b) x=4

c) \Delta G_{max}=-2721.9 J/mol

Explanation:

Gas mixture:

n_{Ar}= 4 mol

n_{Ne}= x mol

n_{Xe}= y mol

n_{tot}= n_{Ar} + n_{Ne} + n_{Xe}=3*n_{Ar}

n_{Ne} + n_{Xe}=2*n_{Ar}

x + y=8 mol

y=8 mol- x

Mol fractions:

x_{Ar}=\frac{4 mol}{12 mol}=1/3

x_{Ne}=\frac{x mol}{12 mol}=x/12

x_{Xe}=\frac{8 - x mol}{12 mol}=(8-x)/12

Expression of \Delta G_{mixing}

\Delta G_{mixing}=R*T*\sum_{i]*x_i*ln (x_i)

\Delta G_{mixing}=R*T*[1/3*ln (1/3) +x/12*ln (x/12) +(8-x)/12*ln ((8-x)/12)]

\Delta G_{mixing}=\frac{R*T}{12}*[4*ln (1/3) +x*ln (x/12) +(8-x)*ln ((8-x)/12)]

Expression of \Delta G_{max}

\frac{d \Delta G_{mixing}}{dx}=0

\frac{d \Delta G_{mixing}}{dx}=\frac{R*T}{12}*[ln (x/12)+12-ln ((8-x)/12)-12]

0=\frac{R*T}{12}*[ln (x/12)-ln ((8-x)/12)

0=[ln (x/12)-ln ((8-x)/12)

ln (x/12)=ln ((8-x)/12)

x=(8-x)

x=4

\Delta G_{max}=\frac{8.314*298}{12}*[4*ln (1/3) +4*ln (4/12) +(8-4)*ln ((8-4)/12)]

\Delta G_{max}=\frac{8.314*298}{12}*[4*ln (1/3) +4*ln (1/3) +(4)*ln (1/3)]

\Delta G_{max}=\frac{8.314*298}{12}*[12*ln (1/3)]

\Delta G_{max}=-2721.9 J/mol
