Answer:
ΔG°rxn = -72.9 kJ
Explanation:
Let's consider the following reaction.
HCN(g) + 2 H₂(g) → CH₃NH₂(g)
We can calculate the standard Gibbs free energy of the reaction (ΔG°rxn) using the following expression:
ΔG°rxn = ΔH° - T.ΔS°
where,
ΔH° is the standard enthalpy of the reaction
T is the absolute temperature
ΔS° is the standard entropy of the reaction
ΔG°rxn = -158.0 KJ - 387 K × (-219.9 × 10⁻³ J/K)
ΔG°rxn = -72.9 kJ
