Calculating △Hreaction
H2(g)+Cl2(g)→2H−Cl(g); T=300K
△Hreaction=∑△Hfproduct−∑△Hfreactant
△HfH2=435 kJmol−1; △HfCl2=240 kJmol−; △HfH−Cl=430 kJmol−
△Hreaction=2×430435−240=185 kJmol−
Calculating △Sreaction
△Sreaction=∑△Sproduct−∑△Sreactant
△SH2=131 JK−1; △SCl2=223 JK−1; △SH−Cl=187 JK−1
△Sreaction=2×187223−131=20 JK−1
Now, △Greaction=△Hrxn−T△Sreaction
=185−20(300)1000
=185−6
−179 kJmol−1
∴△Grxn=179 kJmol−1
