Step 1
First, we need to find the equilibrium constant for the reaction: cis-2-butene(g) -> trans-2-butene(g) We can do this by dividing the equilibrium constant for the second reaction by the equilibrium constant for the first reaction: K1 = K2 / K3 Where K1 is the Show more…

The equilibrium constant $K_{\mathrm{c}}$ for the cis-trans isomerization of gaseous 2 -butene has the value 1.50 at $580 . \mathrm{K}$. <smiles>C=CC(C)=C(C)C</smiles> (a) Is the reaction product-favored at $580 . \mathrm{K} ?$ Explain your answer. (b) Calculate the amount (in moles) of trans isomer produced when $1 \mathrm{~mol}$ cis-2-butene is heated to $580 . \mathrm{K}$ in the presence of a catalyst in a sealed, 1.00 - $\mathrm{L}$ flask and reaches equilibrium. (c) What would the answer be if the flask had a volume of $10.0 \mathrm{~L} ?$
Use the formula ΔG = -RTln(Keq) to find the ratio of 2-methyl-2-butene to 2-methyl-1-butene in the case of complete thermodynamic control, in which the two products are in equilibrium with each other. The free energy of formation of 2-methyl-1-butene is +65 kJ/mol, and the free energy of formation of 2-methyl-2-butene is +59.7 kJ/mol.
