The equation represents the decomposition of a generic diatomic element in its standard state. 12X2(g)⟶X(g) Assume that the standard molar Gibbs energy of formation of X(g) is 4.25 kJ·mol−1 at 2000. K and −63.12 kJ·mol−1 at 3000. K. Determine the value of K (the thermodynamic equilibrium constant) at each temperature.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, considering the reaction, we can compute the Gibbs free energy of reaction at each temperature, taking into account that the Gibbs free energy for the diatomic element is 0 kJ/mol:

Thus, at 2000 K:

And at 3000 K:

Next, since the relationship between the equilibrium constant and the Gibbs free energy of reaction is:

Thus, at each temperature we obtain:

In such a way, we can also conclude that at 2000 K reaction is unfavorable (K<1) and at 3000 K reaction is favorable (K>1).

Best regards.

1.consider the following balanced equation and answer parts a through. show calculations for each part.  

3 ag(s) + 4 hno3(aq) → 3 agno3(aq) + no(g) + 2 h2o(l)  

a. calculate the number of moles of agno3 produced by the reaction of 3 moles of ag with excess hno3. if the number to the left of the compound represents the number of moles of the compound which are present, then 3 moles of ag react with 4 moles hno3 to produce 3 moles agno3 (aq).

so the answer to a would be 3 moles.

b. calculate the number of moles of agno3 produced by the reaction of 108 grams of ag with excess hno3.  

i'm not sure how to plug in the grams of silver into an equation using moles to find how many moles are produced.

c. calculate the number of grams of agno3 produced by the reaction of 108 grams of ag with excess hno3  

d. calculate the number of moles of no produced as a byproduct of the reaction of 108 grams of ag with excess hno3.  

e. calculate the number of grams of no produced as a byproduct starting with 108 grams of ag and excess hno3.
