1. Based on the standard free energies of formation, which of the following reactions represent a feasible way to synthesize the product?

N2(g)+H2(g)?N2H4(g);       ?G?f=159.3 kJ/mol

2Na(s)+O2(g)?Na2O2(s);    ?G?f=?447.7 kJ/mol

C(s)+2S(s)?CS2(g);           ?G?f=67.1 kJ/mol

Ca(s)+12O2(g)?CaO(s);      ?G?f=?604.0 kJ/mol

Feasible synthesis

Not a feasible synthesis

Answer #1

If a to be feasible Delta G should be negative.

From the given reactions, 2&4 only have negative values hence feasible

While 1&3 have positive Delta G value hence not feasible.
