Q 1 :    

The equilibrium concentrations of the species in the reaction A+BC+D are 2, 3, 10 and 6 mol L-1, respectively at 300 K. ΔG° for the reaction is (R = 2 cal/mol K)                 [2023]
 

  • -1381.80 cal

     

  • -13.73 cal

     

  • 1372.60 cal

     

  • -137.26 cal

A+BC+D

K=[C][D][A][B]=10×62×3=10

ΔG°=-RTlnK

ΔG°=-2.303RTlogK

ΔG°=-2.303×2×300×log10

         =-2.303×2×300=-1381.80 cal



Q 2 :    

Hydrolysis of sucrose is given by the following reaction: Sucrose+H2OGlucose+Fructose. If the equilibrium constant (KC) is 2×1013 at 300 K, the value of ΔrG° at the same temperature will be              [2020]

  • -8.314 J mol-1K-1×300K×ln(2×1013)

     

  • 8.314 J mol-1K-1×300K×ln(2×1013)

     

  • 8.314 J mol-1K-1×300K×ln(3×1013)

     

  • -8.314 J mol-1K-1×300K×ln(4×1013)

     

(1)

ΔG=ΔG°+RTlnQ

At equilibrium, ΔG=0 and Q=KC

   0=ΔG°+RTlnKC

  ΔG°=-RTlnKC

                  =-8.314J K-1mol-1×300K×ln(2×1013)



Q 3 :    

Which of the following statements is correct for a reversible process in a state of equilibrium?         [2015]

  • ΔG°=-2.30 RTlogK

     

  • ΔG°=2.30 RTlogK

     

  • ΔG=-2.30 RTlogK

     

  • ΔG=2.30 RTlogK
