Ch.19 - Chemical Thermodynamics
Chapter 19, Problem 68
Reactions in which a substance decomposes by losing CO are called decarbonylation reactions. The decarbonylation of acetic acid proceeds according to: CH3COOH1l2¡CH3OH1g2 + CO1g2 By using data from Appendix C, calculate the minimum temperature at which this process will be spontaneous under standard conditions. Assume that ΔH° and ΔS° do not vary with temperature.
