Ni2+(aq) + 6 nh3(aq) ⇌ ni(nh3)6 2+(aq)

is kf = 5.6 × 108 at 25°c.

(a) what is δg o
at this temperature?

(b) if standard-state concentrations of reactants and products are mixed, in which
direction does the reaction proceed?

(c) determine δg when [ni(nh3)62+] = 0.010 m, [ni2+] = 0.0010 m, and [nh3] = 0.0050 m. in which direction will the reaction proceed to achieve equilibrium?

a) ΔGº= -49,9 KJ/mol = - 50 KJ/mol

b) The reaction  goes to the right to formation of products

c) ΔG= 84,42 KJ/mol. The direction is to reactive, to the left

Explanation:

a) ΔGº= - RTLnKf

You need to convert Cº to K. 25ºC=298K

Then, ΔGº= - 3,814 J/molK * 298K* Ln(5.6 *10^8)= - 49906 J/mol = -49,9 KJ/mol = - 50 KJ/mol

b) The ΔGº < 0, that means the direct reaction is spontaneous when te reactive and products are in standard state. In other words the reaction goes to the right, to formation of products

c) The general ecuation for chemical reaction is aA + bB → cD + dD. Thus

ΔG=ΔGº + RTLn (([C]^c*[D]^d)/[A]^a*[B]^b)

In this case,

ΔG=ΔGº + RTLn ([Ni(NH3)62+] / [Ni2+]*[NH3]^6 )= 84417 J/mol =84,42 KJ/mol

ΔG >0 means the reaction isn't spontaneous in the direction of the products. Therefore the direction is to reactive, to the left

h let me think

the best answer is d because the strong cohesion is caused by the ability of water molecules to undergo hydrogen bonding.

a is incorrect because when water solidifies, it becomes   ice, which expands and occupies a bigger volume for the same mass of water in its liquid state.

b is incorrect because water has high surface tension. besides bonding to itself it hydrogen bonds to other molecules at the top decreasing possibility for breaking of attractive forces.

c is incorrect because the water molecule has oxygen which is highly electronegative and so pulls the electron pair towards itself creating a dipole moment, making the molecule polar.

e is incorrect because water has strong adhesion, ability to stick to other molecules such as glass because of this molecules having stronger hydrogen bonding than water.
