- Data are given in Appendix 1 for white phosphorus, P4(s). P4(g) has the following thermodynamic values: Hf=58.9kJ/mol , S=280.0J/kmol . What is the temperature at which white phosphorus sublimes at 1 atm pressure?arrow_forwardUsing data from Appendix 4, calculate H, G, and K (at 298 K) for the production of ozone from oxygen: 3O2(g)2O3(g) At 30 km above the surface of the earth, the temperature is about 230. K and the partial pressure of oxygen is about 1.0 103 atm. Estimate the partial pressure of ozone in equilibrium with oxygen at 30 km above the earth's surface.
