Since K3 is greater than 1, the reaction is thermodynamically favorable.
Data;
- FeF2 is in an acidic solution
- K2 > 1 is thermodynamically favorable
- k3 > 1 is not thermodynamically favorable
- K1<1 is not thermodynamically favorable
This states that the heat change in a given chemical reaction is the same irrespective of the number of process in which the reaction is effected.
Using Hess Law;
substituting this using Gibbs law,
Since K3 is greater than 1, the reaction is thermodynamically favorable.
