Help! Substance ΔG°f at 298K(kJ/mol)

H2O(l) −237.2

H2O(g) −228.4

(a) Using the information in the table above, determine the value of ΔG° at 298K for the process represented by the equation H2O(l)⇄H2O(g).

Question 2

(b) Considering your answer to part (a), indicate whether the process is thermodynamically favorable at 298K. Justify your answer.

Question 3

(c) Considering your answer to part (b), explain why H2O(l) has a measurable equilibrium vapor pressure at 298K.

Question 4

Water vapor can be produced in two different processes, as represented below.

Process 1 Process 2

H2O(s)⇄H2O(g) H2O(l)⇄H2O(g)

(d) In terms of concepts of entropy and the particle-level structure of the different phases of water, explain why the change in entropy, ΔS, is greater for process 1 than for process 2.
