Based on the standard free energies of formation, which of the following reactions represent a feasible way to synthesize the product?
a. n2(g)+h2(g)→n2h4(g); δg∘f=159.3 kj/mol
b. 2na(s)+o2(g)→na2o2(s); δg∘f=−447.7kj/mol
c. c(s)+2s(s)→cs2(g); δg∘f=67.1 kj/mol
d. ca(s)+12o2(g)→cao(s); δg∘f=−604.0 kj/mol

Explanation:

According the equation of Gibb's free energy -

∆G = ∆H -T∆S

∆G = is the change in gibb's free energy

∆H = is the change in enthalpy

T = temperature

∆S = is the change in entropy .

And , the sign of the  ΔG , determines whether the reaction is Spontaneous or non Spontaneous or at equilibrium ,

i.e. ,

if

•ΔG < 0 , the reaction is Spontaneous

•ΔG > 0 , the reaction is non Spontaneous

•ΔG = 0 , the reaction is at equilibrium

a.

N₂(g) + H₂(g)  → N₂H₄ (g)   ; ΔG⁰f = 159.3 kJ/mol

ΔG > 0 , the reaction is non Spontaneous  , the reaction is not feasible in the forward direction

b.

2Na(s) + O₂(g) → Na₂O₂ (s)   ; ΔG⁰ f = − 447.7kJ/mol

ΔG < 0 , the reaction is Spontaneous  , the reaction is feasible in the forward direction .

c.

C(s) + 2S(s)  →  CS₂ (g)   ; ΔG⁰f = 67.1 kJ/mol

ΔG > 0 , the reaction is non Spontaneous  , the reaction is not feasible in the forward direction

d.

Ca(s) + 12 O₂ (g) → CaO (s) ;  ΔG⁰f = −604.0 kJ/mol

ΔG < 0 , the reaction is Spontaneous  , the reaction is feasible in the forward direction .

under a microscope, cancer cells may look very different from normal cells. they often have different sizes and some may be larger than normal while others are smaller. cancer cells are often abnormally shaped and the control centre of the cell (the nucleus) may have an abnormal appearance.
