Answer:

The correct answer is B. It is spontaneous only at low temperatures.

Explanation:

In thermodynamics, the Gibbs free energy is a thermodynamic potential that can be used to calculate the maximum of reversible work that may be performed by a thermodynamic system at a constant temperature and pressure.

The spontaneity of a reaction is given by the equation:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

where:

ΔH: enthalpy variation

T: absolute temperature

ΔS: entropy variation

As the reaction is exothermic, ΔH<0

As the reaction order increases (the reagents are solid and gas and their product is solid), ΔS<0

Therefore, the reaction will be spontaneous when ΔG is negative.

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

That is, the entropy term must be smaller than the enthalpy term.

Hence, the reaction will be spontaneous only at low temperatures.

On combustion, 1.0 L of a gaseous compound of hydrogen, carbon, and sulfur gives 2.0 L of CO2, 3.0 L of H2O vapor, and 1.0 L of
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The empirical formula of the organic compound is  = C_2H_6S_1

Explanation:

At STP, 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L of volume.

Moles of CO_2 gas at STP occupying 2.0 L = n

n\times 22.4L=2.0L

n=\frac{2.0 L}{22.4 L}=0.08929 mol

Moles of carbon in 0.08920 mol = 1 × 0.08920 mol = 0.08920 mol

Moles of H_2O gas at STP occupying 3.0 L = n'

n'\times 22.4L=3.0L

n'=\frac{3.0 L}{22.4 L}=0.1339 mol

Moles of hydrogen in 0.1339 moles of water vapor = 2 × 0.1339 mol = 0.2678 mol

Moles of SO_2 gas at STP occupying 1.0 L = n''

n''\times 22.4L=1.0L

n''=\frac{1.0 L}{22.4 L}=0.04464 mol

Moles of sulfur in 0.04464 mol = 1 × 0.04464 mol = 0.04464 mol

Moles of carbon , hydrogen and sulfur constituent of that organic compound .

Moles of carbon in 0.08920 mol = 1 × 0.08920 mol = 0.08920 mol

Moles of hydrogen in 0.1339 moles of water vapor = 2 × 0.1339 mol = 0.2678 mol

Moles of sulfur in 0.04464 mol = 1 × 0.04464 mol = 0.04464 mol

For empirical; formula divide the least number of moles from all the moles of elements.

carbon = \frac{0.08920 mol}{0.04464 mol}=2

Hydrogen =  \frac{0.2678 mol}{0.04464 mol}=6

Sulfur = \frac{0.04464 mol}{0.04464 mol}=1

The empirical formula of the organic compound is  = C_2H_6S_1
