Standard Gibbs Free Energy
Consider the equilibrium system: CO(g) + 2 H2 (g) CH3OH(g) Kp = 2.26 x 104 at T-25 oc A. What is the standard Gibbs Free Energy change for this reaction? B. How is the magnitude and sign of the Gibbs Free Energy change consistent with the magnitude of the given equilibrium constant? Does the reaction go to completion? Explain C. What is the standard Gibbs Free Energy change at equilibrium? D. What is the Gibbs Free Energy change for the partial-pressure data below? p CH30Hz 1.0 atm p CO : p H2 = 0.010 atm E. Explain how the reaction proceeds based on⦠i. A comparison between Qp and Kp ii. A comparison between the delta G values calculated in parts A and D. ii. Are your two explanations consistent with each other?
