Accepted Answer

$$\Delta G = 111.4\ 	ext{kJ} - (298\ 	ext{K})(0.0208\ 	ext{kJ/K}) = 105.2\ 	ext{kJ}$$; The reaction is nonspontaneous.

Accepted Answer

No, because $$T_{boil} = \frac{\Delta H_{fus}}{\Delta S_{fus}} = 3297\ 	ext{K}$$, which is higher than 2973 K.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

$$\Delta G_f^\circ is $$always zero for elements in their standard state.

$$\Delta G^\circ_{rxn} = [2(0) + 3(-237.2)] - [-740.0 + 3(0)] = -711.6 + 740.0 = 28.4\ 	ext{kJ}$$

Accepted Answer

$$\Delta G^\circ_{rxn} = [-183.5] - [-78.9 + (-16.4)] = -183.5 + 95.3 = -88.2\ 	ext{kJ}$$

Question 14

Which of the following best explains why $$\Delta G is $$temperature dependent?

Because the $$T\Delta S$$ term in $$\Delta G = \Delta H - T\Delta S$$ means that entropy's contribution to free energy increases with temperature.
