The formation of sodium carbonate from elements in their standard state at 298 K is given by the equation 2Na(s) + 2Cs(s) + 3O2(g) -> 2NaCO3(s) for which ΔH° = -2261.4 kJ and ΔS° = 6475.6 J/K. What is ΔS°?

The standard enthalpy of formation for sodium carbonate, Na2CO3, is -1130.7 kJ/mol. What is the correct formation equation corresponding to this ΔH°f? 4 Na (s) + 2 C (graphite) + 3 O2 (g) → 2 Na2CO3 (s)

Sodium carbonate can be made by heating sodium bicarbonate: 2NaHCO3(s) Na2CO3(s) + CO2(g) + H2O(g) Given that H° = 128.9 kJ/mol and G° = 33.1 kJ/mol at 25°C, above what minimum temperature will the reaction become spontaneous under standard state conditions? (You must show your work to get credit for this question) A) 0.4 K B) 3.9 K C) 321 K D) 401 K E) 525 K
