Consider the following reversible reaction,$A(g)+B(g)\rightleftharpoons AB (g)$. The activation energy of the backward reaction exceeds that of the forward reaction by 2 RT (in J mol-1). If the pre-exponential factor of the forward  reaction is times that of the reverse reaction, the absolute value of $\triangle G^{\ominus}$  ( in J mol-1) for the reaction at 300K is.................                     (Given; ln(2)=0.7 RT =2500J mol-1 at 300K and G is the Gibbs energy )

A) 7500 J/mol

B) 8500 J/mol

The surface of copper gets tarnished by the formation of copper oxide. N2 gas was passed to prevent the oxide formation during heating of copper at 1250 K. However, the N2 gas contains 1 mole % of water vapor as an impurity. The water vapor oxidizes copper as per the reaction is given below

$2Cu (g) + H_{2}O (g) \rightarrow Cu_{2}O (s)+H_{2}(g)$

$P_{H_{2}}$   is the minimum partial  pressure of H2 (in bar) needed to prevent the oxidation at 1250 K. The value of In $P_{H_{2}}$  is........

[Given : total pressure = 1 bar , R  ( universal gas constant ) = 8 JK-1 mol-1 , ln(10)=2.30 Cu(s)  and Cu2 O(s) are  mutually immiscible.)

At 1250 K

$2 Cu (s)+\frac{1}{2}O_{2}(g)\rightarrow Cu_{2}O (s);$

$\triangle G^{\ominus}$=-78,000 J mol-1

$H_{2}(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_{2}\rightarrow H_{2}O (g);$

$\triangle G^{\ominus}$ =-178,000 J mol-1

B) 13.2

C) 14.6

D) -14.6
