    Question 2

    Marks: 1

    Ethene is produced according to the following gas-phase synthesis:

    2C (s)  + 2H2 (g) → C2H4 (g) 

    Thermodynamic data for the components of this equilibrium are

    Change

    Value

    ΔHϴr / kJ mol-1

    p

    ΔSϴ / J K-1 mol-1

    q

    The free energy change for this reaction at 298 K is:

    • ΔGϴ = p - 298 x q

    • ΔGϴ = begin mathsize 14px style fraction numerator straight p over denominator 298 cross times begin display style straight q over 1000 end style end fraction end style

    • ΔGϴ = p - 298 x begin mathsize 14px style straight q over 1000 end style

    • ΔGϴ = begin mathsize 14px style fraction numerator straight p cross times 298 over denominator straight q end fraction end style

    -228.6

    NO (g)

    87.6

     

    Which of the following is the correct calculation to determine ΔGϴ

    4NH3 (g) + 5O2 (g) ⇌ 6H2O (g) + 4NO (g)

    • (-228.6 + 87.6) + (-16.4)

    • (-16.4 x 4) - [(-228.6 x 6) + (87.6 x 4)]
