Question

A chemist fills a reaction vessel with

1.54 atm
methanol
CH3OH
gas,
8.69 atm
oxygen
O2
gas,
6.05 atm
carbon dioxide
CO2
gas, and
3.41 atm
water
H2O
gas at a temperature of
25.0°C
.
Under these conditions, calculate the reaction free energy
ΔG
for the following chemical reaction:

+2CH3OHg3O2g

+2CO2g4H2Og
Use the thermodynamic information in the ALEKS Data tab. Round your answer to the nearest kilojoule.

Answer 1

ΔG = -1366KJ/mol

Step-by-step explanation:

The detailed step by step calculation is as shown in the attachment.

The relationship between ΔG, Temperature, gas constant and the reaction quotient was applied.
