The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of ΔS (entropy change) for the given reaction using the provided data. Let's break down the steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Reaction and Determine N The reaction given is: \[ H_{2(g)} + Cl_{2(g)} \rightarrow 2H_{(aq)}^{+} + 2Cl_{(aq)}^{-} \] In this reaction: - Chlorine gas \( Cl_2 \) is reduced to \( 2Cl^{-} \), which involves the transfer of 2 electrons. - Hydrogen gas \( H_2 \) is oxidized to \( 2H^{+} \), which also involves the transfer of 2 electrons. Thus, the total number of electrons transferred (N) in the overall reaction is: \[ N = 2 + 2 = 2 \] ### Step 2: Use the Formula for ΔS The formula to calculate the standard entropy change (ΔS) for the reaction is given by: \[ \Delta S^{\circ}_{\text{reaction}} = N \cdot F \cdot \left( \frac{dE^{\circ}}{dT} \right)_{P} \] Where: - \( N \) is the number of moles of electrons transferred (which we found to be 2). - \( F \) is Faraday's constant, approximately \( 96500 \, C/mol \). - \( \left( \frac{dE^{\circ}}{dT} \right)_{P} \) is given as \( -1.2 \times 10^{-3} \, V/K \). ### Step 3: Substitute the Values into the Formula Now, substituting the values into the formula: \[ \Delta S^{\circ}_{\text{reaction}} = 2 \cdot 96500 \, C/mol \cdot (-1.2 \times 10^{-3} \, V/K) \] ### Step 4: Calculate ΔS Calculating the value: \[ \Delta S^{\circ}_{\text{reaction}} = 2 \cdot 96500 \cdot (-1.2 \times 10^{-3}) \] \[ = 2 \cdot 96500 \cdot -0.0012 \] \[ = -231.6 \, J/K \] ### Step 5: Final Result Thus, the value of \( \Delta S^{\circ}_{\text{reaction}} \) is approximately: \[ \Delta S^{\circ}_{\text{reaction}} \approx -2.3 \times 10^{2} \, J/K \] ### Conclusion The final answer is: \[ \Delta S^{\circ}_{\text{reaction}} = -2.3 \times 10^{2} \, J/K \] ---
