4Fe(s)+3O(2(g)) to 2Fe2O3(g). The value ...

`4Fe(s)+3O_(2(g)) to 2Fe_2O_3(g)`. The value of `DeltaS` is `-550 JK^(-1)` and the value of DH is `-1650 kJ` at 298 K. Does the process is spontaneous or not?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`DeltaS_("total") = +4980 JK^(-1)mol^(-1)` spontaneous

For the oxidation of iron 4Fc_((s))+3O_(2(g))to2Fe_((2))O_(3(s)) , the entropy change is -549.45 JK^(-1)mol^(-1) at 298 K. Though it has negative entropy change the reaction is spontaneous. Why? (Delta_(r)H^(theta)=-164xx10^(3)J ml^(-1))

Delta S for 4Fe _((s)) + 3 O _(2(g)) to 2 Fe _(2) O _(3 (s)) is -550 J/mole/K.The process is found to be spontaneous even at 298K because [Delta H =- 1660kJ]

In the conversion of lime stone to lime, CaCO_(3(s)) rarr CaO_((s)) + CO_(2(g)) , the values of Delta H^(@) and Delta S^(@) are + 179.1 kJ mol^(-1) and 160.2 JK^(-1) mol^(-1) respectively at 298K and 1 bar. Assuming, Delta H^(@) and Delta S^(@) do not change with temperature, temperature above which conversion of lime stone to lime will be spontaneous is
