9. Calculate delta G(r) for the balanced reaction showing the decomposition of mercury (II) oxide at 298 K.

HgO(s) --> Hg(l) + O2(g)

delta H(f), kJ.mol^-1 = -90.83

S(m), J.K^-1.mol^-1 = 70.29, 76.02, 205.14

(Correct answer is +117.1 kJ/mol)

Assume that thermal decomposition of mercuric oxide, HgO, obeys first-order kinetics. It can be followed by the production of oxygen gas as a product: 2 HgO(s) --> 2 Hg(l) + O2 (g) At a particular temperature, k = 6.02 x 10-4 sec-1. If 1.00 gram of HgO were present initially, how long would it take to produce to produce 1 ml of O2 (g) at STP?
