Beau · Answer 1

Given:

MilliMoles of N2 = 2.5 mmol = 0.0025 moles

Initial volume V1 = 42 cm3

Final volume V2 = 600 cm3

Temperature T = 300 K

To determine:

The change in Gibbs free energy, ΔG

Explanation:

The change in Gibbs free energy is related to the ration of the volumes:

ΔG = - nRTln (V2) / (V1)

= - 0.0025*8.314*300*ln (600/42) = - 16.582 J/mol

Ans: The Gibbs free energy for the process is 0.0166 kJ/mol
