The correct Answer is:
To find the value of \( \Delta G^{\circ} \) for the reaction \( 2 \text{AgCl (s)} + \text{H}_2 (g) \rightarrow 2 \text{Ag (s)} + 2 \text{H}^+ + 2 \text{Cl}^- \), we can use the relationship between the Gibbs free energy change of a reaction and the stoichiometry of the reaction. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given data**: We know that for the reaction: \[ \text{AgCl (s)} \rightarrow \frac{1}{2} \text{H}_2 (g) + \text{Ag (s)} + \text{H}^+ + \text{Cl}^- \] the standard Gibbs free energy change \( \Delta G^{\circ} = -21.52 \, \text{kJ} \). 2. **Understand the stoichiometry**: The second reaction is simply double the first reaction: \[ 2 \text{AgCl (s)} + \text{H}_2 (g) \rightarrow 2 \text{Ag (s)} + 2 \text{H}^+ + 2 \text{Cl}^- \] This means that we are doubling the number of moles of all reactants and products. 3. **Apply the relationship for Gibbs free energy**: The relationship between the Gibbs free energy change of a reaction and its stoichiometry is: \[ \Delta G^{\circ}_{\text{new}} = n \cdot \Delta G^{\circ}_{\text{original}} \] where \( n \) is the factor by which the reaction is multiplied. Here, \( n = 2 \). 4. **Calculate \( \Delta G^{\circ} \) for the new reaction**: \[ \Delta G^{\circ}_{\text{new}} = 2 \cdot (-21.52 \, \text{kJ}) = -43.04 \, \text{kJ} \] 5. **Final answer**: Thus, the value of \( \Delta G^{\circ} \) for the reaction \( 2 \text{AgCl (s)} + \text{H}_2 (g) \rightarrow 2 \text{Ag (s)} + 2 \text{H}^+ + 2 \text{Cl}^- \) is: \[ \Delta G^{\circ} = -43.04 \, \text{kJ} \]
