Methanol liquid burns readily in air.

One way to represent this equilibrium is:
CH₃OH(l) + 3/2 O₂(g) <-------->CO₂(g) + 2 H₂O(g

We could also write this reaction three other ways, listed below. The equilibrium constants for all of the reactions are related. Write the equilibrium constant for each new reaction in terms of K, the equilibrium constant for the reaction above.

1)	2 CO₂(g) + 4 H₂O(g)	<----->	2 CH₃OH(l) + 3 O₂(g)	K₁ =
2)	CO₂(g) + 2 H₂O(g)	<------>	CH₃OH(l) + 3/2 O₂(g)	K₂ =
3)	2 CH₃OH(l) + 3 O₂(g)	<----->	2 CO₂(g) + 4 H₂O(g)	K₃ =

Consider the evaporation of methanol at 25.0 ?C : CH3OH(l)?CH3OH(g) . Why methanol spontaneously evaporates in open air at 25.0 ?C : Methanol evaporates at room temperature because there is an equilibrium between the liquid and the gas phases. The vapor pressure is moderate (143 mmHg at 25.0 degrees centigrade), so a moderate amount of methanol can remain in the gas phase, which is consistent with the free energy values. A.) Find ?G? at 25.0 ?C . B.) Find ?G...
