Chapter 4, Problem 4J.11E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The ${\text{ΔG}}^{\text{o}}$ value has to be calculated and the spontaneity of the given reaction has to be given.

The given reaction is,

  ${\text{2SO}}_{\text{2}}\left(\text{g}\right){\text{+O}}_{\text{2}}\left(\text{g}\right)\stackrel{}{\to }{\text{2SO}}_{\text{3}}\left(\text{g}\right)$

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The ${\text{ΔG}}^{\text{o}}$ value has to be calculated and the spontaneity of the given reaction has to be given.

The given reaction is,

  ${\text{CaCO}}_{\text{3}}\left(\text{s}\right)\stackrel{}{\to }\text{CaO}\left(\text{s}\right){\text{+CO}}_{\text{2}}\left(\text{g}\right)$

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The ${\text{ΔG}}^{\text{o}}$ value has to be calculated and the spontaneity of the given reaction has to be given.

The given reaction is,

  ${\text{2C}}_{\text{8}}{\text{H}}_{\text{8}}\left(\text{l}\right){\text{+25O}}_{\text{2}}\left(\text{g}\right)\stackrel{}{\to }\text{16}{\text{CO}}_{\text{2}}\left(\text{g}\right){\text{+18H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}\left(\text{l}\right)$
