Calculate the free energy of formation of NaBr(s) given the following information: NaBr(s) → Na(s) + 1/2Br2(l), ∆G° = 349 kJ/mol

The given question is incomplete, the complete question is:

Calculate the free energy of formation of NaBr(s) given the following information: NaBr(s) → Na(s) + 1/2Br2(l), ΔG° = 349 kJ/mol

A) –309 kJ/mol

B) –329 kJ/mol

C) None of the above

D) –349 kJ/mol

E) –369 kJ/mol

The correct answer is option D, that is, -349 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

Based on the given information, the reaction is:  

NaBr (s) ⇔ Na (s) + 1/2 Br₂ (l), the ΔG° of the reaction given is 349 kJ per mole. In the given question, it is clearly mentioned that there is a need to determine the free energy of the formation of NaBr. Thus, there is a need to keep Na (s) and Br₂ (l) at the reactant side and NaBr (s) at the product side.  

Therefore, there is a need to reverse the reaction and change the sign on ΔG.  

Now the reaction will become,  

Na (s) + 1/2 Br₂ (l) ⇔ NaBr (s), and the ΔG° will now become -349 kJ per mole. Hence, -349 kJ per mole is the free energy of the formation of NaBr (s).

answer: any goods being imported from another country may be subject to issued by the federal government are tariffs

explanation:  

tariffs are a tax on anything that are imported from abroad. government use them to protect and boost their local industries and the thought is that they encourage consumers to buy local instead of importing and they will hope will protect jobs and economy in the country that implements them
