18. The reaction below represents the
decomposition of a generic diatomic
molecule in its standard state.
1/2 A2(g) → A(g)
Assuming that the standard molar Gibbs
energy of formation of A(g) is 8.12 kJ•mol–1
at 2500 K and -72.20 kJ•mol-1 at 3500 K.
Calculate the value of K (thermodynamic
equilibrium constant) at each temperature.
Determine the value of AH°rxn for these
data assuming that AH°rxn is independent
of temperature.
