Question

Use the reaction i2(s) i2(g), h = 62.4 kj/mol, s = 0.145 kj/(molk), for question 10. which direction of the reaction is favored at 298 k (room temperature)?

A. Toward I2(g) production
B. Both are equally favored
C. It is impossible to tell
D. Toward I2(s) production

Answer 1

the answer is Toward I2(s) production

Step-by-step explanation:

I took the test rn and that’s what I got.

Answer 2

D. Toward I2(s)

Step-by-step explanation:

∆G = ∆H - T∆S

∆G = 62.4-.145*298

∆G = 19.2 kJ/mol

Since ∆G is positive (greater than 0) for this reaction, the reverse reaction (going from right to left) is favored: conversion of gaseous I2 to solid I2.
