Thermodynamic Potential NAT Level – 1 - Question 3

Calculate the standard Gibb’s free energy change for the formation of methane from carbon and hydrogen at 298 K in the units of kJ/mol. Given that ΔH is –74.9 kJ/mol and ΔS = -80.75J{\rm{/K - mol}}.\)


Detailed Solution for Thermodynamic Potential NAT Level – 1 - Question 3

Given  ΔH = –74.9 kJ/mol
ΔS = –80.75 J/K-mol
Now use the equation
ΔS = ΔH – TΔS
⇒ ΔS = –74.9 kJ/mol +298 K (80.75/K-mol) × (1 kJ/1000J)
⇒ ΔS = – 50.9 kJ/mol
The correct answer is: -50.9
