Gibbs Free Energy This is another thermodynamic quantity that helps in predicting the spontaneity of a process, is called Gibbs energy (G). Gibbs free energy is the energy needed to create a system out of nothing in an environment at both constant pressure and constant temperature. It is defined mathematically by the equation. G = H - TS Where H = heat content, S = entropy of the system, T = absolute temperature Solved example: Which of the following will fit into the blank? When two phases of the same single substance remain in equilibrium with one another at a constant P and T, their molar _________ must be equal. (A) Internal energy (B) Enthalpy (C) Entropy (D) Free energy Solution: (D) Free energy change For isothermal process. ΔG = G2 – G1 = ΔH – TΔS ΔG = change in Gibbs free energy of the system. It is that thermodynamic quantity of a system the decrease in whose value during a process is equal to the maximum possible useful work that can be obtained from the system. Solved example: Calculate free energy change when one mole of NaCl is dissolved in water at 25°C. Lattice energy = 700 kJ/mol.ΔS at 25°C = 26.5 Jmol–1, Hydration energy of NaCl = -696 kJ/mol. (A) -3.9 kJ (B) -8kJ (C) -12kJ (D) -16kJ Solution: (A) Problem 1:- Calculate the total rotational kinetic energy of all the molecules in one mole of air at 25.0ºC. Concept: Let us assume all the molecules in the air are diatomic. For half rotation the molecule will contribute ½ kT to its rotational kinetic energy, where k is the Boltzmann’s constant. So for one complete rotation the molecule will contribute kT (½ kT×2= kT) to its rotational kinetic energy. So the total rotational kinetic energy will be, E = kT But k= R/NA Where R is the gas constant and NA is the Avogadro’s number. Solution: To find out total rotational kinetic energy E, substitute R/NA for k in the equation E = kT, E = kT = (R/NA) T For one mole of gas (NA =1), the equation E =(R/NA)T will be, E = RT To find out the total rotational kinetic energy of all the molecules, substitute 25.0° C for temperature T and 8.31 J/ K for R for one mole of gas in the equation E = RT, E = RT = (8.31 J/ K) (25.0° C) = (8.31 J /K)(25+273) K = (8.31 J/ K)(298 K) = 2476.38 J Rounding off to three significant figure, the total rotational kinetic of all the molecule will be 2480 J. Problem 2:- Calculate the internal energy of 1 mole of an ideal gas at 250ºC. Concept: Internal energy (Eint) of the ideal gas is defined as the, Eint = 3/2 nRT Where n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant and T is the temperature. Solution: To find out the internal energy of the ideal gas, substitute 1 mole for n, 250° C for temperature T and 8.31 J/ mol. K for the gas constant R in the equation E = 3/2 nRT, E = 3/2 nRT = 3/2 (1 mol) (8.31 J/ mol. K) (250° C) = (1.5)( 1 mol) (8.31 J/ mol. K) (250+273) K = (1.5)( 1 mol) (8.31 J/ mol. K) (523) K = 6519.195 J Rounding off to three significant figures, the internal energy of the ideal gas will be 6520 J. Problem 3:- A cosmic-ray particle with energy 1.34 TeV is stopped in a detecting tube that contains 0.120 mpl of neon gas. Once this energy is distributed among all the atoms, by how much is the temperature of the neon increased? Concept: We can assume neon is an ideal gas. The internal energy (ΔEint) of the ideal gas is defined as the, ΔEint = 3/2 nR ΔT Where n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant and ΔT is the increase in temperature. From the equation ΔEint = 3/2 nR ΔT, the increase in temperature ΔT will be, ΔT = 2/3 ΔEint/nR Solution: To obtain the increase in temperature ΔT, substitute 1.34 TeV for ΔEint, 0.120 mol for number of mole n and 8.31 J/ mol. K for the gas constant R in the equation ΔT = 2/3 ΔEint/nR, ΔT = 2/3 ΔEint/nR = 2/3 (1.34 TeV) (1012 eV/1 TeV) (1.6×10-19 J/eV) / (0.120 mol) (8.31 J/ mol. K) = 1.43×10-7 K From the above observation we conclude that, the increased temperature of the neon will be 1.43×10-7 K. Problem 4:- A mixture of 1.78 kg of water and 262 g of ice at 0ºC is, in a reversible process, brought to a final equilibrium state where the water/ice ratio, by mass, is 1:1 at 0ºC. (a) Calculate the entropy change of the system during this process. (b) The system is then returned to the first equilinrium state, but in an reversible way. Calculate the entropy change of the system during this process. (c) Show that your answer is consistent with the second law of thermodynamics. Concept: The entropy change ΔS for a reversible isothermal process is defined as, ΔS = Q/T = -mL/T Here m is the mass, L is the latent heat and T is the temperature. Solution: Mass of water = 1.78 kg Mass of ice = 262 g So the total mass of ice and water mixture will be, Mass of ice-water mixture = (Mass of water) + (Mass of ice) = (1.78 kg) + (262 g) = (1.78 kg) + (262 g×10-3 kg/1 g) = 1.78 kg + 0.262 kg = 2.04 kg If eventually the ice and water have the same mass, then the final state will have 1.02 kg (2.04 kg/2) of each. Thus the mass of the water that changed into ice m will be the difference of mass of water mw and mass of final state ms. So, m = mw - ms To obtain mass of water that changed into ice m, substitute 1.78 kg for mass of water mw and 1.02 kg for mass of final state ms in the equation m = mw - ms, m = mw - ms = 1.78 kg – 1.02 kg = 0.76 kg The change of water at 0° C to ice at 0° C is isothermal. To obtain the change in entropy ΔS of the system during this process, substitute 0.76 kg for mass m, 333×103 J/kg for heat of fusion of water L and 273 K for T in the equation ΔS = -mL/T, ΔS = -mL/T = -(0.76 kg) (333×103 J/kg )/(273 K) = -927 J/K From the above observation we conclude that, the change in entropy ΔS of the system during this process will be -927 J/K. Now the system is returned to the first equilibrium state, but in an irreversible way. Thus the change in entropy ΔS of the system during this process is equal to the negative of previous case. So, ΔS = -(- 927 J/K) = 927 J/K From the above observation we conclude that, the change in entropy ΔS of the system would be 927 J/K. In accordance to second law of thermodynamics, entropy change ΔS is always zero. The total change in entropy will be, ΔS = (-927 J/K) + (927 J/K) = 0 From the above observation we conclude that, our answer is consistent with the second law of thermodynamics. Problem 5:- Water standing in the open at 32ºC evaporates because of the escape of some of the surface molecules. The heat vaporization is approximately equal to εn, where ε is the average energy of the escaping molecules and n is the number of molecules per kilogram. (a) Find ε. (b) What is ratio of ε to the average kinetic energy of H2O molecules, assuming that the kinetic energy is related to temperature in the same way as it is for gases? Concept: Number of molecules n is equal to the Avogadro’s number NA divided by molecular weight M. So, n = NA/M The average kinetic energy Eav of a diatomic molecule like H2O is defined as, Eav = 3/2 kT Here k is the Boltzmann constant and T is the temperature. Solution: (a) As heat of vaporization Lv is approximately equal to εn, where ε is the average energy of the escaping molecules and n is the number of molecules per kilogram, so, Lv = εn Or, ε = Lv/n = Lv/( NA/M) = LvM / NA To obtain the average energy ε, substitute 2256×103 J/kg for latent heat of vaporization of water molecule (H2O) Lv, 0.018 kg/mol for M and 6.03×1023/mol for NA in the equation ε = LvM / NA, we get, ε = LvM / NA = (2256×103 J/kg)( 0.018 kg/mol)/( 6.03×1023) = 6.75×10-20 J From the above observation we conclude that, the value of average energy ε would be 6.75×10-20 J. (b) As, Eav = 3/2 kT, therefore the ratio of ε to the average kinetic energy Eav of H2O molecule will be, ε / Eav = ε / (3/2 kT) = 2 ε / 3 kT To obtain the ratio of ε to the average kinetic energy Eav of H2O molecule, substitute 6.75×10-20 J for ε , 1.38×10-23 J/K for k and 32° C for T in the equation ε / Eav= 2 ε / 3 kT, we get, ε / Eav= 2 ε / 3 kT = 2(6.75×10-20 J)/3(1.38×10-23 J/K)( 32° C) = 2(6.75×10-20 J)/3(1.38×10-23 J/K)( 32+273) K) =2(6.75×10-20 J)/3(1.38×10-23 J/K)( 305K) = 10.7 From the above observation we conclude that, the ratio of ε to the average kinetic energy Eav of H2O molecule would be 10.7.

ΔG = change in Gibbs free energy of the system.
It is that thermodynamic quantity of a system the decrease in whose value during a process is equal to the maximum possible useful work that can be obtained from the system.
Solved example: Calculate free energy change when one mole of NaCl is dissolved in water at 25°C. Lattice energy = 700 kJ/mol.ΔS at 25°C = 26.5 Jmol–1, Hydration energy of NaCl = -696 kJ/mol.
(A) -3.9 kJ (B) -8kJ
(C) -12kJ (D) -16kJ
Solution: (A)
Problem 1:-
Calculate the total rotational kinetic energy of all the molecules in one mole of air at 25.0ºC.
Concept:
Let us assume all the molecules in the air are diatomic. For half rotation the molecule will contribute ½ kT to its rotational kinetic energy, where k is the Boltzmann’s constant. So for one complete rotation the molecule will contribute kT (½ kT×2= kT) to its rotational kinetic energy.
So the total rotational kinetic energy will be,
E = kT
But k= R/NA
Where R is the gas constant and NA is the Avogadro’s number.
Solution:
To find out total rotational kinetic energy E, substitute R/NA for k in the equation E = kT,
= (R/NA) T
For one mole of gas (NA =1), the equation E =(R/NA)T will be,
E = RT
To find out the total rotational kinetic energy of all the molecules, substitute 25.0° C for temperature T and 8.31 J/ K for R for one mole of gas in the equation E = RT,
= (8.31 J/ K) (25.0° C)
= (8.31 J /K)(25+273) K
= (8.31 J/ K)(298 K)
= 2476.38 J
Rounding off to three significant figure, the total rotational kinetic of all the molecule will be 2480 J.
Problem 2:-
Calculate the internal energy of 1 mole of an ideal gas at 250ºC.
Internal energy (Eint) of the ideal gas is defined as the,
Eint = 3/2 nRT
Where n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant and T is the temperature.
To find out the internal energy of the ideal gas, substitute 1 mole for n, 250° C for temperature T and 8.31 J/ mol. K for the gas constant R in the equation E = 3/2 nRT,
E = 3/2 nRT
= 3/2 (1 mol) (8.31 J/ mol. K) (250° C)
= (1.5)( 1 mol) (8.31 J/ mol. K) (250+273) K
= (1.5)( 1 mol) (8.31 J/ mol. K) (523) K
= 6519.195 J
Rounding off to three significant figures, the internal energy of the ideal gas will be 6520 J.
Problem 3:-

We can assume neon is an ideal gas. The internal energy (ΔEint) of the ideal gas is defined as the,
ΔEint = 3/2 nR ΔT
Where n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant and ΔT is the increase in temperature.
From the equation ΔEint = 3/2 nR ΔT, the increase in temperature ΔT will be,
ΔT = 2/3 ΔEint/nR
To obtain the increase in temperature ΔT, substitute 1.34 TeV for ΔEint, 0.120 mol for number of mole n and 8.31 J/ mol. K for the gas constant R in the equation ΔT = 2/3 ΔEint/nR,
= 2/3 (1.34 TeV) (1012 eV/1 TeV) (1.6×10-19 J/eV) / (0.120 mol) (8.31 J/ mol. K)
= 1.43×10-7 K
From the above observation we conclude that, the increased temperature of the neon will be 1.43×10-7 K.
Problem 4:-
A mixture of 1.78 kg of water and 262 g of ice at 0ºC is, in a reversible process, brought to a final equilibrium state where the water/ice ratio, by mass, is 1:1 at 0ºC. (a) Calculate the entropy change of the system during this process. (b) The system is then returned to the first equilinrium state, but in an reversible way. Calculate the entropy change of the system during this process. (c) Show that your answer is consistent with the second law of thermodynamics.
The entropy change ΔS for a reversible isothermal process is defined as,
ΔS = Q/T
= -mL/T
Here m is the mass, L is the latent heat and T is the temperature.
Mass of ice = 262 g
So the total mass of ice and water mixture will be,
Mass of ice-water mixture = (Mass of water) + (Mass of ice)
= (1.78 kg) + (262 g)
= (1.78 kg) + (262 g×10-3 kg/1 g)
= 1.78 kg + 0.262 kg
= 2.04 kg
If eventually the ice and water have the same mass, then the final state will have 1.02 kg (2.04 kg/2) of each.
Thus the mass of the water that changed into ice m will be the difference of mass of water mw and mass of final state ms.
So, m = mw - ms
To obtain mass of water that changed into ice m, substitute 1.78 kg for mass of water mw and 1.02 kg for mass of final state ms in the equation m = mw - ms,
m = mw - ms
= 1.78 kg – 1.02 kg
= 0.76 kg
The change of water at 0° C to ice at 0° C is isothermal.
To obtain the change in entropy ΔS of the system during this process, substitute 0.76 kg for mass m, 333×103 J/kg for heat of fusion of water L and 273 K for T in the equation ΔS = -mL/T,
ΔS = -mL/T
= -(0.76 kg) (333×103 J/kg )/(273 K)
= -927 J/K
From the above observation we conclude that, the change in entropy ΔS of the system during this process will be -927 J/K.
So, ΔS = -(- 927 J/K)
= 927 J/K
From the above observation we conclude that, the change in entropy ΔS of the system would be 927 J/K.
The total change in entropy will be,
ΔS = (-927 J/K) + (927 J/K)
= 0
From the above observation we conclude that, our answer is consistent with the second law of thermodynamics.
Problem 5:-
Water standing in the open at 32ºC evaporates because of the escape of some of the surface molecules. The heat vaporization is approximately equal to εn, where ε is the average energy of the escaping molecules and n is the number of molecules per kilogram. (a) Find ε. (b) What is ratio of ε to the average kinetic energy of H2O molecules, assuming that the kinetic energy is related to temperature in the same way as it is for gases?
Number of molecules n is equal to the Avogadro’s number NA divided by molecular weight M.
So, n = NA/M
The average kinetic energy Eav of a diatomic molecule like H2O is defined as,
Eav = 3/2 kT
Here k is the Boltzmann constant and T is the temperature.
(a)
As heat of vaporization Lv is approximately equal to εn, where ε is the average energy of the escaping molecules and n is the number of molecules per kilogram, so,
Lv = εn
Or,
ε = Lv/n
= Lv/( NA/M)
= LvM / NA
To obtain the average energy ε, substitute 2256×103 J/kg for latent heat of vaporization of water molecule (H2O) Lv, 0.018 kg/mol for M and 6.03×1023/mol for NA in the equation ε = LvM / NA, we get,
ε = LvM / NA
= (2256×103 J/kg)( 0.018 kg/mol)/( 6.03×1023)
= 6.75×10-20 J
From the above observation we conclude that, the value of average energy ε would be 6.75×10-20 J.
(b)
As, Eav = 3/2 kT, therefore the ratio of ε to the average kinetic energy Eav of H2O molecule will be,
ε / Eav = ε / (3/2 kT)
= 2 ε / 3 kT
To obtain the ratio of ε to the average kinetic energy Eav of H2O molecule, substitute 6.75×10-20 J for ε , 1.38×10-23 J/K for k and 32° C for T in the equation ε / Eav= 2 ε / 3 kT, we get,
ε / Eav= 2 ε / 3 kT
= 2(6.75×10-20 J)/3(1.38×10-23 J/K)( 32° C)
= 2(6.75×10-20 J)/3(1.38×10-23 J/K)( 32+273) K)
=2(6.75×10-20 J)/3(1.38×10-23 J/K)( 305K)
= 10.7
From the above observation we conclude that, the ratio of ε to the average kinetic energy Eav of H2O molecule would be 10.7.
