3A
B. What is the Gibbs free energy for this reaction at 3250 K ? Assume that ΔH and ΔS do not change with
temperature.
3B

3C
4. For each of the following processes, give the signs of H and S, then predict the conditions (high temperature
(High), low temp (Low), all temps (All), or no temps (None)) under which each rxn will be spontaneous.
A. H2O(g) → H2O(l)
B. CO2(s) → CO2(g)
5. a) Write a reaction (including phases) for the vaporization of liquid ethanol, then use the following data to
calculate H and S of this reaction. C2H5OH (l) Hof = – 277.7 kJ/mol So = 160.6 J/(K mol)
C2H5OH (g) Hof = – 235.1 kJ/mol So = 282.6 J/(K mol)
Rxn:
H =
S =
Tb =
