Answer:
The value of free enrage that is ΔG for the overall reaction is 36.3 kJ/mol.
Explanation:
[tex]{\rm A \rightleftharpoons B}, \Delta G_1 = 13.2 kJ/mol[/tex]...[1]
[tex]{\rm B \rightleftharpoons C}, \Delta G_2 = -28.9 kJ/mol[/tex]...[2]
[tex]{\rm C \rightleftharpoons D},\Delta G_3 = 5.80 kJ/mol[/tex]...[3]
To find ΔG for reaction :
[tex]{\rm A \rightleftharpoons D},\Delta G = ? [/tex]...[4]
By using Hess's law:
[1] - [2] - [3] = [4]
[tex]\Delta G =\Delta G_1-\Delta G_2-\Delta G_3[/tex]
[tex]=13.2 kJ/mol -(-28.9 kJ/mol)-(5.80 kJ/mol)=36.3 kJ/mol[/tex]
The value of free enrage that is ΔG for the overall reaction is 36.3 kJ/mol.
