- For the reaction NO(g)+NO2(g)N2O3(g) , use tabulated thermodynamic data to calculate H and S. Then use those values to answer the following questions. (a) Is this reaction spontaneous at 25°C? Explain your answer. (b) If the reaction is not spontaneous at 25°C, will it become spontaneous at higher temperatures or lower temperatures? (c) To show that your prediction is accurate, choose a temperature that corresponds to your prediction in part (b) and calculate G . (Assume that both enthalpy and entropy are independent of temperature.)arrow_forwardImpure nickel, refined by smelting sulfide ores in a blast furnace, can be converted into metal from 99.90% to 99.99% purity by the Mond process. The primary reaction involved in the Mond process is Ni(s)+4CO(g)Ni(CO)4(g) a. Without referring to Appendix 4, predict the sign of S for the above reaction. Explain. b. The spontaneity of the above reaction is temperature-dependent. Predict the sign of Ssurr, for this reaction. Explain c. For Ni(CO)4(g), Hfo=607KJ/mol and S = 417 J/K mol at 298 K. Using these values and data in Appendix 4, calculate H and S for the above reaction. d. Calculate the temperature at which G = 0 (K = 1) for the above reaction, assuming that H and S do not depend on temperature. e. The first step of the Mood process involves equilibrating impure nickel with CO(g) and Ni(CO)4(g) at about 50C. The purpose of this step is to convert as much nickel as possible into the gas phase. Calculate the equilibrium constant for the above reaction at 50.C. f. In the second step of the Mood process, the gaseous Ni(CO)4 is isolated and heated to 227C. The purpose of this step is to deposit as much nickel as possible as pure solid (the reverse of the preceding reaction). Calculate the equilibrium constant for the preceding reaction at 227C. g. Why is temperature increased for the second step of the Mood process? h. The Mond process relies on the volatility of Ni(CO)4 for its success. Only pressures and temperatures at which Ni(CO)4 is a gas are useful. A recently developed variation of the Mood process carries out the first step at higher pressures and a temperature of l52C. Estimate the maximum pressure of Ni(CO)4(g) that can be attained before the gas will liquefy at 152C. The boiling point for Ni(CO)4 is 42C and the enthalpy of vaporization is 29.0 kJ/mol. [Hint: The phase change reaction and the corresponding equilibrium expression are Ni(CO)4(l)Ni(CO)4(g)K=PNi(CO)4 Ni(CO)4(g) will liquefy when the pressure of Ni(CO)4 is greater than the K value.]arrow_forwardIndicate whether the following processes are spontaneous or nonspontaneous.
