Answer #1

Since the reaction would be,

H2 (g) + CO2 (g) ------> H2O(g) + CO(g)

Now using the formula for gibbs free energy,

ΔG = ΔG° + RTln(Q)

For a gas phase reaction of the type

aA(g) + bB(g) ⇌ cC(g) + dD(g),

Q = PCcPDd/PAaPBb

Therefore ,

ΔG=ΔGo+RTln(PCcPDd/PAaPBb)

here, PA = PH2 = 0.28 atm

  PB = PCO2 = 0.71 atm

  PC = P H2O = 0.60 atm

  PD = PCO = 1.12 atm

ΔG° = 0 (assuming equilibrium condition)

R = 0.0827  L atm mol-1K-1

T = 298K (Room temperature)

Now substituting the values,

ΔG = 0 + (0.0827 * 298 * ln (0.60 * 1.12 / 0.28 * 0.71))

ΔG = 0.0827 * 298 * ln ( 14.11 )

ΔG = 0.0827 * 298 * 2.646

ΔG = 65.231 Jmol-1
