Calculate the work done in the following reaction at 300 K , A (g) + B (g) = 2 C (g) [R = 8.314 JK ⁻¹ mol ⁻¹]
Options
- A2.494 kJ
- B4.988 kJ
- C00 kJ
- D-2.494 kJ
Correct answer
C. 00 kJ
Step-by-step solution
The given reaction is A (g) + B (g) 2 C (g) . The change in the number of moles of gaseous species is given by n_g = n_p - n_r . n_g = 2 - (1 + 1) = 0 The work done in a chemical reaction at constant temperature and pressure is W = - n_g RT . Substituting the value of n_g , we get W = -0 8.314 300 = 0 kJ . Answer: 00 kJ
