Fe(s) + 5 CO(g) → Fe(CO)5(g) ΔS° = ?
We can use Hess’s Law to determine the entropy change of the overall reaction from the given reactions:
Fe(CO)5(l) → Fe(CO)5(g) ΔS° = 107 J/K
Fe(s) + 5 CO(g) → Fe(CO)5(l) ΔS° = - 677 J/K
Using Appendix 4 and the following data, determine S° for Fe(CO) 5(g).
Fe(s) + 5CO(g) → Fe(CO) 5 (g) ΔS° = ?
Fe(CO) 5(l) → Fe(CO) 5(g) ΔS° = 107 J/K
Fe(s) + 5CO(g) → Fe(CO) 5(l) ΔS° = -677 J/K
