CO2(g)+CCl4(g)⇌2COCl2(g) Calculate ΔG for this reaction at 25 ∘C under these conditions: PCO2PCCl4PCOCl2===0.140 atm0.185 atm0.7

padilas [110]

Answer: The $\Delta G$ for the reaction is 54.425 kJ/mol

Explanation:

For the given balanced chemical equation:

$CO_2(g)+CCl_4(g)\rightleftharpoons 2COCl_2(g)$

We are given:

$\Delta G^o_f_{CO_2}=-394.4kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o_f_{CCl_4}=-62.3kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o_f_{COCl_2}=-204.9kJ/mol$

To calculate $\Delta G^o_{rxn}$ for the reaction, we use the equation:

$\Delta G^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta G_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta G_f(reactant)]$

For the given equation:

$\Delta G^o_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta G^o_f_{(COCl_2)})]-[(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(CO_2)})+(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(CCl_4)})]$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta G^o_{rxn}=[(2\times (-204.9))-((1\times (-394.4))+(1\times (-62.3)))]\\\Delta G^o_{rxn}=46.9kJ=46900J$

Conversion factor used = 1 kJ = 1000 J

The expression of $K_p$ for the given reaction:

$K_p=\frac{(p_{COCl_2})^2}{p_{CO_2}\times p_{CCl_4}}$

We are given:

$p_{COCl_2}=0.735atm\\p_{CO_2}=0.140atm\\p_{CCl_4}=0.185atm$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$K_p=\frac{(0.735)^2}{0.410\times 0.185}\\\\K_p=20.85$

To calculate the gibbs free energy of the reaction, we use the equation:

$\Delta G=\Delta G^o+RT\ln K_p$

where,

$\Delta G$ = Gibbs' free energy of the reaction = ?

$\Delta G^o$ = Standard gibbs' free energy change of the reaction = 46900 J

R = Gas constant = $8.314J/K mol$

T = Temperature = $25^oC=[25+273]K=298K$

$K_p$ = equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure = 20.85

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta G=46900J+(8.314J/K.mol\times 298K\times \ln(20.85))\\\\\Delta G=54425.26J/mol=54.425kJ/mol$

Hence, the $\Delta G$ for the reaction is 54.425 kJ/mol

List facts of protons, electrons and neutrons

arsen [322]

Protons: The mass of the proton is about 1,840 times the mass of the electron and slightly less than the mass of the neutron.
Electrons: Electrons are arranged around the nucleus of atoms in regions called electron clouds or electron orbits.
Neutrons: A neutron is one of two particles found inside the nucleus (central part) of an atom. The other particle is called a proton. Electrons are particles that move around an atom outside the nucleus.

What happens to the pen?what could have caused the pen's motion? grade 8 asap

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

One is tension force that acts on the string and the other one is gravitational force that is acting on the pen and is therefore, the one that pulls the pen towards the ground. Therefore, the pen's motion is caused by the unbalanced force acting on the pen.
