Calculate ΔrG° for the reaction below at 25.0 °C
CH4(g) + H2O(g) → 3 H2(g) + CO(g)
given ΔfG° [CH4(g)] = –50.8 kJ/mol, ΔfG° [H2O(g)] = –228.6 kJ/mol, ΔfG° [H2(g)] = 0.0 kJ/mol, and ΔfG° [CO(g)] = –137.2 kJ/mol.

Homework Answers

Answer #1

ΔrG° reaction = ΔrG° products - ΔrG° reactants

                      = ( 3 x 0 -137.2) - ( -50.8 -228.6)

                      = -137.2 + 279.4

                      = 142.2 kJ / mol

ΔrG° reaction = 142.2 kJ / mol

The major industrial source of hydrogen gas is by the following reaction: CH4(g) + H2O(g) ------> CO(g) + 3 H2(g) Use bond energies to predict deltaH for this reaction. So I used bond energy chart: CH4(g): 4mol C-H= 4*413kJ/mol H2O(g): 2mol H-O = 2*467kJ/mol 3 H2(g): 3mol H-H = 3*432kJ/mol CO(g): 1mol C-O = 1*358kJ/mol And I got the answer as 1290kJ.... but it is wrong because apparently for CO(g) the bond has to be a triple bond...so the energy...
