Answer:

For the following reaction ΔG°rxn = 667.6 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Temperature = 25 °C

Compound A  = 387.7  kJ/mol

Compound B = -653.3  kJ/ mol

Compound C =  402.0 kJ/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

A + B → C

Step 3: Find ΔG Rxn in kj/mol.

ΔG°rxn = ΔG°products - ΔG°reactants

ΔG°rxn = 402.0 kJ/mol - (387.7 kJ/mol -653.3 kJ/mol)

ΔG°rxn = 402.0 kJ/mol - (-265.6 kJ/mol)

ΔG°rxn = 402.0 kJ/mol + 265.6 kJ/mol

ΔG°rxn = 667.6 kJ/mol

For the following reaction ΔG°rxn = 667.6 kJ/mol

The Gibbs free energy ΔG Rxn for the reaction A + B ⇄ C  is 667.6 kJ

The Standard Gibbs free energy is the rate at which the reactant is being changed to products. It can be expressed by using the formula:

[tex]\mathbf{\Delta G^0_{rxn} = \sum (product) - \sum (reactant)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\Delta G^0_{rxn} =(1 \times 402) -((1 \times 387.7)+ (1 \times -653.3) )}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\Delta G^0_{rxn} =(402 - 387.7+ 653.3 ) \ kJ}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\Delta G^0_{rxn} =667.6\ kJ}[/tex]

Therefore, from the reaction between A + B ⇄ C, we can conclude that the  ΔG Rxn is 667.6 kJ
