For a process, the enthalpy change of a system is 1.25 x 105 J and the entropy change is 300.0 J/K. Calculate the free energy change of the system at 290 K.
- A.
9.2x105 J
- B.
3.8x104 J
- C.
1.03x106 J
- D.
1.1x105 J
Correct Answer
B. 3.8x104 JExplanation
The free energy change of a system can be calculated using the equation ΔG = ΔH - TΔS, where ΔH is the enthalpy change, ΔS is the entropy change, and T is the temperature. Plugging in the given values, we get ΔG = 1.25 x 105 J - 290 K x 300.0 J/K = 1.25 x 105 J - 87,000 J = 38,000 J. Therefore, the free energy change of the system at 290 K is 3.8 x 104 J.Rate this question:

The other options, such as the enthalpy of reaction or molar enthalpy of vaporization, are specific types of enthalpy that describe heat changes in certain chemical reactions or phase changes, but they do not encompass the overall heat content of the system.Rate this question:

Molar enthalpy (heat) of vaporization
Correct Answer
E. Molar enthalpy (heat) of vaporizationExplanation
The molar enthalpy (heat) of vaporization refers to the amount of energy required to convert one mole of a liquid substance into its gaseous state at a constant temperature and pressure. It is a measure of the strength of the intermolecular forces holding the liquid molecules together. The higher the molar enthalpy of vaporization, the stronger the intermolecular forces and the more energy required to break them and convert the liquid into a gas.Rate this question:

Standard enthalpy (heat) of formation
Correct Answer
F. Standard enthalpy (heat) of formationExplanation
The correct answer is "standard enthalpy (heat) of formation." This term refers to the enthalpy change that occurs when one mole of a compound in its standard state is formed from its constituent elements in their standard states. It is a measure of the energy released or absorbed during the formation of a compound.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
B. Molar enthalpy (heat) of fusionExplanation
The molar enthalpy (heat) of fusion refers to the amount of energy required to melt one mole of a solid. This means that it measures the heat absorbed or released when a solid substance changes into its liquid phase at a constant temperature. It is a specific type of enthalpy change and is different from other enthalpy changes such as the enthalpy of formation or combustion. The molar enthalpy of fusion is specific to the substance being melted and is a characteristic property of that substance.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
C. Spontaneous processExplanation
A spontaneous process refers to a physical or chemical change that occurs without any external intervention. It happens naturally and does not require any additional energy input. This means that the process can occur on its own, driven by the inherent tendencies of the system. It is important to note that a spontaneous process does not necessarily mean that it occurs quickly or instantaneously, but rather that it will occur without any external influence.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
B. Enthalpy (heat) of combustionExplanation
The correct answer is enthalpy (heat) of combustion. The enthalpy change for the complete burning of one mole of a substance refers to the amount of heat released or absorbed when one mole of a substance undergoes complete combustion in excess oxygen. It is a measure of the energy content of the substance and is commonly used to determine the heat released during combustion reactions.Rate this question:
