(a)
Interpretation:
The given
Concept introduction:
The oxidizer is the species whose oxidation state falls during the course of reaction and reducer is the species whose oxidation number increases. Oxidized product is the oxidation product of the reducer and reduced product is the reduction product of the oxidizer.
(b)
Interpretation:
The given redox reaction is spontaneous or nonspontaneous is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The oxidizer is the species whose oxidation state falls during the course of reaction and reducer is the species whose oxidation number increases. Oxidized product is the oxidation product of the reducer and reduced product is the reduction product of the oxidizer.

- Consider the equilibrium system HF(aq)H+(aq)+F(aq) Given HfHF(aq)=320.1kJ/mol , HfF(aq)=332.6kJ/mol ; SF(aq)=13.8kJ/molK ; KaHF=6.9104 at 25°C calculate S° for HF(aq).arrow_forwardCalculate G and K at 25C for the reactions in Exercises 38 and 42.arrow_forwardActually, the carbon in CO2(g) is thermodynamically unstable with respect to the carbon in calcium carbonate(limestone). Verify this by determining the standardGibbs free energy change for the reaction of lime,CaO(s), with CO2(g) to make CaCO3(s).arrow_forward
- Calculate G for the following reactions and state whether each reaction is spontaneous under standard conditions at 298 K. (a) 2Na(s) + H2SO4() Na2SO4(s) + H2(g) (b) Cu(s) + H2SO4() CuSO4(s) + H2(g)arrow_forwardWhat is a spontaneous reaction?arrow_forwardThe equilibrium constant for a certain reaction increases by a factor of 6.67 when the temperature is increased from 300.0 K to 350.0 K. Calculate the standard change in enthalpy (H) for this reaction (assuming H is temperature-independent).arrow_forward
- The equilibrium constant for a reaction is 31015 (a) Without carrying out any calculation, discuss whether ?G° for the reaction is positive or negative. (b) Calculate ?G° for this reaction.arrow_forwardCalculate E°, G°, and K at 25°C for the reaction 3Mn2+(aq)+2MnO4(aq)+2H2O5MnO2(s)+4H+(aq)arrow_forward
