Explanation / Answer

7) with thermodynamics, one cannot determine (blank).

Solution :- The speed of reaction cannot be determined by using the thermodynamics

Because speed of reaction can be determined by kinetics and not by thermodynamics.

8) the value of deltaS for the catalytic hydrogenation of acetylene to ethene, C2H2 + H2 --> C2H4, is ?

Solution :-

C2H2 + H2 --> C2H4

Lets calculate the entropy change using the standard entropy values

Delta Srxn = sum of delta S product – sum of delta S reactant

Lets put the values in the formula

Delta S rxn = [1*C2H4]-[(1*C2H2)+(1*H2)]

Delta S rxn = [1*219.4 ] –[(1*200.8)+(1*130.58)]

Delta S rxn = -112 J

Therefore correct answer is option -112 J

9) the value of deltaG at 373 K for the oxidation of solid elemental sulfur to gaseous sulfur dioxide, S(s,rhombic) + O2 --> SO2, is ?? (At 298 K, deltaH for this reaction is -269.9 kJ/mol and deltaS is +11.6 J/K).

Solution :- formula to calculate the delta G is as follows

Delta G= delta H- (T*deltaS)

Lets put the values in the formula

Delta G =-269.9 kJ –(373 K * 0.0116 kJ per K)

              = -274.2 kJ/mol

Therefore correct answer is optin D
