Answer: The [tex]\Delta G[/tex] for the reaction is 54.425 kJ/mol

Explanation:

For the given balanced chemical equation:

[tex]CO_2(g)+CCl_4(g)\rightleftharpoons 2COCl_2(g)[/tex]

We are given:

[tex]\Delta G^o_f_{CO_2}=-394.4kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o_f_{CCl_4}=-62.3kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o_f_{COCl_2}=-204.9kJ/mol[/tex]

To calculate [tex]\Delta G^o_{rxn}[/tex] for the reaction, we use the equation:

[tex]\Delta G^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta G_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta G_f(reactant)][/tex]

For the given equation:

[tex]\Delta G^o_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta G^o_f_{(COCl_2)})]-[(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(CO_2)})+(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(CCl_4)})][/tex]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]\Delta G^o_{rxn}=[(2\times (-204.9))-((1\times (-394.4))+(1\times (-62.3)))]\\\Delta G^o_{rxn}=46.9kJ=46900J[/tex]

Conversion factor used = 1 kJ = 1000 J

The expression of [tex]K_p[/tex] for the given reaction:

[tex]K_p=\frac{(p_{COCl_2})^2}{p_{CO_2}\times p_{CCl_4}}[/tex]

We are given:

[tex]p_{COCl_2}=0.735atm\\p_{CO_2}=0.140atm\\p_{CCl_4}=0.185atm[/tex]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]K_p=\frac{(0.735)^2}{0.410\times 0.185}\\\\K_p=20.85[/tex]

To calculate the gibbs free energy of the reaction, we use the equation:

[tex]\Delta G=\Delta G^o+RT\ln K_p[/tex]

where,

[tex]\Delta G[/tex] = Gibbs' free energy of the reaction = ?

[tex]\Delta G^o[/tex] = Standard gibbs' free energy change of the reaction = 46900 J

R = Gas constant = [tex]8.314J/K mol[/tex]

T = Temperature = [tex]25^oC=[25+273]K=298K[/tex]

[tex]K_p[/tex] = equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure = 20.85

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]\Delta G=46900J+(8.314J/K.mol\times 298K\times \ln(20.85))\\\\\Delta G=54425.26J/mol=54.425kJ/mol[/tex]

Hence, the [tex]\Delta G[/tex] for the reaction is 54.425 kJ/mol

The change in free energy for the reaction is 54.4  kJ/mol.

What is change in free energy?

The change in free energy under nonstandard conditions can be obtained from the chage in free energy under standard conditions using the formula;

ΔG = ΔG° + RTlnK

Now ΔG° is obtained from;

ΔG°reaction = 2[−204.9kJ/mol] - [(−394.4kJ/mol) + (−62.3kJ/mol)]

ΔG°reaction =(-409.8) + 456.7

ΔG°reaction = 46.9 kJ/mol

Q =PCOCl2^2/ PCO2 * PCCl4

Q = (0.735)^2/ 0.140 * 0.185

Q = 20.8

ΔG = 46.9 * 10^3 + [8.314 * 298 * ln(20.8)]

ΔG = 54.4  kJ/mol
