Question

a) The boiling point of ethanol is 173.1 F. In an experiment the entropy change for the reaction CH3CH2OH (l) yields CH3CH2OH(g) the entropy change was determined to be 120.9 J/mol K. Please estimate the enthalpy if evaporation.

 

b) For the reation in part A determine the signs of ΔH and signs/values of ΔG at 100.0 F. (Note ΔH can be (- or +) and ΔG can be (-,0,+)).
