The following equation represents the decomposition of a genericdiatomic element in its standard state.
1/2 X2 (g) = X (g)
Assume that the standard molar Gibbs energy of formation of X(g)is 5.40 kJ·mol–1 at 2000. K and –53.08 kJ·mol–1 at 3000. K.Determine the value of K (the thermodynamic equilibrium constant)at each temperature.
K at 2000. K = ?
K at 3000. K = ?
Assuming that ΔH°rxn is independent of temperature, determinethe value of ΔH°rxn from these data.
ΔH°rxn = ? kj x mol-1
