MCQ
The equilibrium concentrations of the species in the reaction $A+B \rightleftharpoons C+D$ are $4,3,12$ and $6$ mol $L ^{-1}$ respectively at $300 K . \Delta G ^0$ for the reaction is approximately.
$(R=2 cal / mol K(\log 6 \approx 0.778))$
  • A
    1175 cal
  • B
    $-1002 cal$
  • C
    $-992 cal$
  • $-1075 cal$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$-1075 cal$
(D)
$\begin{array}{l} K _{ eq }=\frac{[ C ][ D ]}{[ A ][ B ]} \\ K _{ eq }=(12 \times 6)(4 \times 3)=6 \\ \Delta G ^0=-2.303 RT \log K _{ eq }=-2.303(2)(300)(\log 6) \\ =-1075 cal \text { approx. } \quad(\because R =2 cal / mol k )\end{array}$
