Answer #1

The given reaction is

C(graphite)+2H_{2}(g)\rightarrow CH_{4}(g)

Under standard conditions at 298 K ,

The Standard Enthalpy Change of the reaction , \Delta H^{0}=-74.9KJ

The Standard Entropy Change of the reaction system is , \Delta S_{sys}^{0}=\frac{\Delta H^{0}}{T}

  \Delta S_{sys}^{0}=\frac{-74.9*10^{3}J}{298K}\approx -251.34JK^{-1}

Also , for a reversible reaction at equilibrium , \Delta S_{sys}^{0}=-\Delta S_{surr}^{0}

\Delta S_{surr}^{0}=251.34JK^{-1}
