Calculate the standard entropy change for the reaction

2Mg(s)+O2(g)→2MgO(s)

using the data from the following table:

Substance

△ H(kJ/mol)

Gf (kJ/mol)S0 [J/(K/mol)]
Mg(s)0.000.0032.70
O2(g)0.000.00205.0
MgO(s)-602.0-569.627.00

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

Answer #1

deltaS0= 2*deltaS0(MgO) - [2*deltaS0(Mg) + deltaS0(O2)]

=2*27 - [2*32.7 + 205]

= - 216.4 J/K
