Part B

Calculate the standard entropy change for the reaction

2Mg(s)+O2(g)→2MgO(s)

using the data from the following table:

Substance ΔH?f (kJ/mol) ΔG?f (kJ/mol) S? [J/(K⋅mol)]
Mg(s) 0.00 0.00 32.70
O2(g) 0.00 0.00 205.0
MgO(s) -602.0 -569.6 27.00

Express your answer to four significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Expert Solution

Entropy is defined as:

Entropy = Entropy of products - Entropy of reactants

negative entropy: (Entropy of reactants greater than products)

Ag+(aq)+Cl(aq)→AgCl(s)

2Mg(s)+O2(g)→2MgO(s)

Positive entropy: (Entropy of products is greater than reactants)

2KClO3(s)→2KCl(s)+3O2(g)

2N2O(g)→2N2(g)+O2(g)

C7H16(g)+11O2(g)→7CO2(g)+8H2O(g)

H2O(l)→H2O(g)

Part B

Entropy of reaction:

2Mg(s)+O2(g)→2MgO(s)

Entropy of products

MgO : 27, 2 MgO = 2 * 27 = 54 J / K mol

Entropy of reactants

2 Mg = 32.7 J / K mol

O2 = 205 J / K mol

Entropy of reaction : 54 - (32.7+205) = -183.7 J / K mol
