Consider the following reaction:
I2(g)+Cl2(g)⇌2ICl(g)
Kp= 81.9 at 25 ∘C.
Calculate ΔGrxn for the reaction at 25 ∘C under each of
the following conditions.
PICl= 2.65 atm ;
PI2= 0.325 atm ;
PCl2= 0.212 atm .
under standard conditions Grex = G0 = -RTlnKp
G0 = -RTlnKp
= -8.314*298*ln81.9 = -10900 J = -10.9KJ/mole
Grex = G0 + RTlnKp
= -10900+ 8.314*298*lnP2ICl/PI2 PCl2
= -10900+ 8.314*298*ln(2.65)2/0.325*0.212
= +0.48Kj/mole
