Answer to Problem 41QP
Solution: The value of
Explanation of Solution
Given information: The given reaction is
The value of
The value of standard free energy of formation for NO is calculated by using the relation given below:
Here,
The value of change in standard Gibbs free energy for atoms in their standard state is zero. In the reaction,
Substitute
Therefore, the value of
The value of
The value of
Here,
Substitute
Therefore, the value of
In the given reaction, the number of moles of gaseous atoms is two on both sides of the reaction, and thus there is no change in the number of moles.
Hence, the value of
Therefore, the value of
The value of
