ΔG⁰ = ΔH⁰ - TΔS
ΔH⁰ = Hf,(CH₃OH) - Hf,(CO) = -238.7 + 110.5 = -128.2 kJ/mol
ΔS = S(CH₃OH) - S(CO) - 2S(H₂) = 126.8 - 197.7 - 2 x 130.6 = -332.1 J/mol.K
So
ΔG⁰ = - 128200 + 332.1 T
For the reaction to be spontaneous:
ΔG⁰ < 0
So: -128200 + 332.1 T < 0
332.1 T < 128200
T < 386.028 K
One way you can work out the rate of reaction is by the amount of product that is produced to time. This can also be done with heat and time.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
Equal number of atoms of each gas in each container
Explanation:
When the valves opened, the two contaienrs become one and the gases beging to mix by diffusion. This phenomenom is produced by the differeces of concentration of a gas between two points of the container.
The gases will continue diffunding util their concentration in both containers are equal.
