For complete combustion of ethene,
C2H4(g)+3O2(g)→2CO2(g)+2H2O(l)
the amount of heat produced as measured in a bomb calorimeter is -1406 kJ mol-1 at 300 K.
The minimum value of TΔS needed to reach equilibrium is (–) _____ kJ. (Nearest integer)
Given: R=8.3 J K-1mol-1 [2023]
(1411)
For equilibrium ΔG=0
ΔH-TΔS=0
TΔS=ΔH=ΔE+ΔngRT
ΔH=-1406+[-2]×8.3×10-3×300
=-1410.98≈-1411 kJ/mol
