Combustion of sucuose is used by aeroic ...

Combustion of sucuose is used by aeroic organisms for providing energy for the life sustaining processes. If all the capturing of energy from the reaction is done through electrical process (non P-V word) then calculate maximum available energy which can be captured by combustion of `34.2` gm of sucrose
Given : `DeltaH_("combustion")"(sucrose)"=-6000"kJ mol"^(-1)`
`DeltaS_("combustion")=180"J/K-mol and body temperature is 300 K"`

A

600 kJ

B

594.6 kJ

C

5.4 kJ

D

605.4 kJ

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Sucrose (molecular weight) = 342
From `DeltaG = DeltaH - TDeltaS = -6000 xx 10^(3) - 300 xx 180 = -6504 xx 10^(3) kJ//mol`
For 34.2 gm energy available `=(6054)/342 xx 34.2 = 605.4` kJ

The change in Gibbs free energy of the system along provides a criterion for the spontaneity of a process at constant temperature and pressure. A change in the free energy of a sytem at constant temperature and pressure will be: DeltaG_("system") = DeltaH_("system") - T DeltaS_("system") The free energy for a reaction having Delta H= 31400 cal, DeltaS= 32 cal K^(-1) mol^(-1) at 1000^(@)C is

Dependence of Spontaneity on Temperature: For a process to be spontaneous , at constant temperature and pressure , there must be decrease in free energy of the system in the direction of the process , i.e. DeltaG_(P.T) lt 0. DeltaG_(P.T) =0 implies the equilibrium condition and DeltaG_(P.T) gt 0 corresponds to non- spontaneity. Gibbs- Helmholtz equation relates the free energy change to the enthalpy and entropy changes of the process as : " "DeltaG_(P.T) = DeltaH-TDeltaS" ""..."(1) The magnitude of DeltaH does not change much with the change in temperature but the entropy factor TDeltaS change appreciably . Thus, spontaneity of a process depends very much on temperature. For endothermic process, both DeltaH and DeltaS are positive . The energy factor, the first factor of equation, opposes the spontaneity whereas entorpy factor favours it. At low temperature the favourable factor TDeltaS will be small and may be less than DeltaH, DeltaG will have positive value indicated the nonspontaneity of the process. On raising temperature , the factor TDeltaS Increases appreciably and when it exceeds DeltaH, DeltaG would become negative and the process would be spontaneous . For an expthermic process, both DeltaH and DeltaS would be negative . In this case the first factor of eq.1 favours the spontaneity whereas the second factor opposes it. At high temperature , when T DeltaS gt DeltaH, DeltaG will have positive value, showing thereby the non-spontaneity fo the process . However , on decreasing temperature , the factor , TDeltaS decreases rapidly and when TDeltaS lt DeltaH, DeltaG becomes negative and the process occurs spontaneously. Thus , an exothermic process may be spontaneous at low temperature and non-spontaneous at high temperature. A reaction has a value of DeltaH =-40 Kcal at 400 k cal mol^(-1) . The reaction is spontaneous, below this temperature , it is not . The values fo DeltaG and DeltaS at 400 k are respectively

Stabilities of alkanes can be compared by converting these compounds to a common product and comparing the amount of the heat given off. One possiblitiy would be to measure the heat of combustion from converting alkenes to xo_(2) and H_(2)O . The heats of combustion are of large values and measuring small difference in these large numbers is difficult. Alkene of the lowest heat of combustion among isomeric alkenes is of the lowest energy and is most stable. Th stability of alkenes is often compared by meansuring the ehat of hydrogenation 9 heat given off, Delta H_(h)^(@) during catalytic hydrogenation. The heat of hydrogenation is in smal number, which provides more accurate energy difference. For a compound containing more than one double bond, Delta_(h)^(@) is the sum of heat of hydrogenation of individual double bonds. For non - conjugated diens, this additive relatioship is found to hold. For conjugated dienes, however, the measured value is slightly lower than expected. Cumulated dienes, which are even less stable than non - conjugated dienes. The more stable is the alkene, lower is the heat of combustion and heat of hydrogenation. More highly substituted double bonds are usually more stable. In case of cyclokanes, compounds having higher angle strin are less stable. If the heat of hydrogenation of cyclooctene is about 23 k cal mo^(-1) , what would be the probable DeltaH_(b) or 1,3,5,7- cyclooctatetraene ?
