iii. what is the gibbs free energy of the reaction at 25°c?

iv. is the reaction spontaneous or nonspontaneous at 25°c? explain your answer.

I. Kindly, see the attached image.

II. The reaction is exothermic.

III. - 51.88 kJ/mol.

IV. The reaction is spontaneous.

Explanation:

I. Draw a possible potential energy diagram of the reaction. Label the enthalpy of the reaction.

In an exothermic reaction, the energy of the reactants is higher than that of the products.

Kindly see the attached image to show you the potential energy diagram of the reaction.

II. Is the reaction endothermic or exothermic? Explain your answer.

If the sign is positive, the reaction is endothermic.

If the sign is negative, the reaction is exothermic.

Herein, ΔH = - 33.1 kJ/mol, so the reaction is exothermic.

III. What is the Gibbs free energy of the reaction at 25°C?

∵ ΔG = ΔH - TΔS.

Where, ΔG is the Gibbs free energy change (J/mol).

ΔH is the enthalpy change (ΔH = - 33.1 kJ/mol).

T is the temperature (T = 25°C + 273 = 298 K).

ΔS is the entorpy change (ΔS = 63.02 J/mol.K = 0.06302 J/mol.K).

∴ ΔG = ΔH - TΔS = (- 33.1 kJ/mol) - (298 K)(0.06302 J/mol.K) = - 51.88 kJ/mol.

IV. Is the reaction spontaneous or nonspontaneous at 25°C?

The sign of ΔG indicates the spontaneity of the reaction:

If ΔG < 0, the reaction is spontaneous.

If ΔG = 0, the reaction is at equilibrium.

If ΔG > 0, the reaction is nonspontaneous.

Herein, ΔG = - 51.88 kJ/mol, so the reaction is spontaneous.

out of these options:

ability to burn paper

pure sodium reacting violently with water

the boiling point of water

helium does not tend to react with anything

i would say this is a physical property:

helium does not tend to react with anything

why? :

i said helium does not tend to react with anything because well, it reacts to ! but ability to burn paper, pure sodium reacting violently with water, & the boiling point of water are chemical or

physical properties: the properties of a substance that can be observed without changing the chemical makeup of the substance

chemical properties: properties of a substance relating to the chemical nature and reactivity of the substance

8 m/s because for him to get the same amount of energy as ray is putting out, bobby, who weighs half as much as ray, needs to run twice as fast.
