Explanation / Answer
For the given reaction,
T = 25 + 273 = 298 K
A) dGorxn = dHorxn - TdSorxn
= -92.38 - 298 x -0.0984
= -63.0568 kJ/mol
The reaction is spontaneous as the net change in free energy of reaction is -ve.
B) Using,
dGo = -RTlnKp
-63056.8 = -8.314 x 298 lnKp
Kp = 1.13 x 10^11
Kp is very high, the direction of equilibrium displacement would be to the right, towards product formation.
