2. What is the actual free energy change of the reaction above? Again, define each term in the equation. Express this equation in terms of mass action Q
3. What is the standard free energy change of the reaction above? Again, define each term.

Answer:

Explanation:

From the reaction ; aA + bB → cC + dD

1) Keq = equilibrium constant = [A]^a [B]^b / [C]^c [D]^d

where [A] = [B] = [C] = [D] are the concentrations of reactants A, B, C and D respectively.

2) What is the actual free energy change of the reaction above? ;

  • ΔG is the differences between the sum of the free energies of the product and the reactant.
  • Mathematically; ΔG = (cΔGC + dΔGD) - ( aΔGA + bΔGB)
  • ΔG, in terms of reaction quotient ; ΔG = ΔG(standard) + RT lnQ

where R = gas constant and T = temperature.

3) What is the standard free energy change of the reaction above;

  • ΔG(Reaction) = Summation ΔGf(products) - summation ΔGf(reactants)
  • where summation ΔGf = standard free energy of formation
