Potassium chlorate, a common oxidizing agent in fireworks and matchheads, undergoes a solid-state disproportionation reaction when heated:
4KClO3 (s) ⟶ Δ3KClO4 (s) + KCl (s).
Use ΔHf ° and S° values to calculate ΔG_sys ° (which is ΔGrxn °) in kJ at 25°C for this reaction.

![\implies G^0_{rxn} = 3 \times \Delta _fG^0 [KClO_4{(s)}] + \Delta_fG^0[KCl_{(s)}] - 4 \times \Delta _f G^0 [ KClO_3 (s) ]](/tpl/images/1206/8925/2b60b.png)
![\Delta _fG^0 \ values \ at \ 25^0 \ C (298 \ K) are\ given \ as:\\\\ \Delta _fG^0 [KClO_4(s)] = -303.09 \ kJ \\ \\ \Delta _fG^0 [KCl(s) ] = - 409.14 \ kJ \\ \\ \Delta_f G^0 [KClO_3_{(s)}] = -296.25 \ kJ \\ \\ replacing \ the \ above \ values \ into \ equation (1) ; then:\\ \\ \\\Delta G^0_{rxn} = 3 *(-303.09) + (-409.14) - 4*(-296.25) \ kJ \\ \\ = (-909.27 - 409.14 + 1185) \ kJ \\ \\ = -133.41 \ kJ \\ \\ \mathbf{\Delta G^0_{rxn} = -133.4 \ kJ }](/tpl/images/1206/8925/f4981.png)
