Question
A chemist fills a reaction vessel with 6.97 atm methanol (\( \text{CH}_3\text{OH} \)) gas, 5.25 atm oxygen (\( \text{O}_2 \)) gas, 9.79 atm carbon dioxide (\( \text{CO}_2 \)) gas, and 9.31 atm water (\( \text{H}_2\text{O} \)) gas at a temperature of 25.0°C.

Under these conditions, calculate the reaction free energy \( \Delta G \) for the following chemical reaction:

\[ 2\text{CH}_3\text{OH}(\text{g}) + 3\text{O}_2(\text{g}) \rightarrow 2\text{CO}_2(\text{g}) + 4\text{H}_2\text{O}(\text{g}) \]

Use the thermodynamic information in the ALEKS Data tab. Round your answer to the nearest kilojoule.

\[ \boxed{\phantom{xx}} \text{kJ} \]
