The isomerization of Ethanal (molecule 1) into Ethylene Oxide (molecule 2) at 300 K, is the following: 1. Calculate the standard enthalpy of formation (∆fH°) of ethanal in the gaseous state (molecule 1) and of ethylene oxide in the gaseous state (molecule 2). Comment and compare these two values. 2. Calculate at 300 K, the standard free enthalpy of formation (∆fG°) of ethanal in the gaseous state (molecule 1) and the ethylene oxide in the gaseous state (molecule 2). Comment and compare these two values.
3. In what sense does the isomerization reaction occur spontaneously under standard conditions?
