the enthalpy of reactions increases with temperature of reaction equilibrium WG C: Physical Limits Chemical Reactions Is there a rule? EvaporationTroutons‘s Rule Melting of ElementsRichardson‘s Rule
Reaction in Equilibrium: ∆G = 0 » » » ∆H = T * ∆S as shown in the graph before According to Sizmann ∆S should be a function of the difference of gaseous moles (n) of both sides of the reaction Since entropy is generated when condensed matter is converted to gas We studied some reactions and found: ∆S / (kJ/mol) = 0.876 * n + 0.631 WG C: Physical Limits / Reaction Enthalpy
WG C: Physical Limits / Reaction Enthalpy Difference in entopy of some reactions as a function of additional moles of gas released ∆S / (kJ/mol) = 0.876 * n + 0.631
WG C: Physical Limits / Reaction Enthalpy Enthalpy of reaction as a function of temperature and the difference of gaseous moles
