Using data from the Thermodynamic Data table, calculate ΔG for the reaction 2 H2S(g) + SO2(g) equilibrium reaction arrow 3 Srhombic(s) + 2 H2O(g) for the following conditions at 25°C. (Assume PA, PB, and PC are the partial pressures of H2S(g), SO2(g), and H2O(g), respectively.) PA = 1.3 ✕ 10−4 atm PB = 1.4 ✕ 10−2 atm PC = 2.9 ✕ 10−2 atm

Solutions

Expert Solution

The reaction is

2H2S(g) + SO2(g) equilibrium reaction arrow 3Srhombic(s) + 2H2O(g)

Absolute temperature T = (25+273) K = 298 K

We have ΔG = -2.303RTlogKp

Kp = equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure in case of gaseous reactions

ΔG = free energy of the reaction

R = Universal gas constant and its value is 8.314 J mol-1 K-1

T = absolute temperature in Kelvin scale

In the above reaction, as rhombic sulfur is a product that is solid at 25°C, so its partial pressure will be zero.

Thus the expression of equilibrium constant will be,

Kp = pC2 / (pA2 * pB); where pA, pB and pC are the partial pressures of H2S(g), SO2(g) and H2O(g), respectively.

Thus putting the values of pA, pB and pC in the expression of Kp, we get

Kp = (2.9*10-2)2 / {(1.3*10-4)2 * (1.4*10-2)}

or, Kp = 3.55 * 1010

By using the values of Kp, R and T, from the expression of ΔG we get

ΔG = -2.303 * 8.314 * 298 * log(3.55 * 1010) J mol-1

or ΔG = -60198 J mol-1

Therefore the value of ΔG is -60198 J mol-1
