Question

Consider the following table of thermodynamic data. All valuesare tabulated for 25 C. C2H2 (g) 209 201
C2H4 (g) 68 219
C2H6 (g) -33 230
H2 (g) 0 131
H2O (g) -229 189
C2H5OH -175 161
C2H2 (g) + 2H2 (g) --> C2H6 (g)

A) -173 b) 236 c) -311 d) -248 I've tried doing this about 6 times over two days and can't comeclose. Pls help Consider the following table of thermodynamic data. All valuesare tabulated for 25 C. Subs. G degree f(KJ/mol) S degree (J/mol-k) C2H2 (g) 209 201 C2H4 (g) 68 219 C2H6 (g) -33 230 H2 (g) 0 131 H2O (g) -229 189 C2H5OH -175 161 What is the value of H degree (in KJ) for the reaction describedbelow? Assume the reaction is performed at 25 C. C2H2 (g) + 2H2 (g) -- > C2H6 (g) A) -173 b) 236 c) -311 d) -248

Explanation / Answer

                  C2H2 (g) + 2H2 (g) --> C2H6 (g)        Gorxn =  GofC2H6(g) - [Gof C2H2(g) +2Gof H2(g) ]                      = -33 kJ/mol - [ 209 kJ/mol + 2 * 0]                     =   - 242 kJ/mol         Sorxn = SofC2H6(g) - [Sof C2H2(g) +2Sof H2(g) ]                      = 230 J/K.mol - [ 201 J/K.mol + 2*131 J/K.mol]                    = -233 J/K.mol         Gorxn =   Horxn - TSorxn        -242 kJ/mol = Horxn- 298K * (-233 x 10-3 J/K.mol)             Horxn  = -311.4 kJ/mol          Theanswer is c)
