well... this is a past jee question ...
ne1 interested in trying ?? [3]
when 1-pentyne(A) is treated with 4N alc. KOH at 175 °C , it is converted slowly to an eqm mixture of 1.3% 1-pentyne(A), 95.2% 2- pentyne (B) and 3.5% 1,2- pentadiene (C). the eqm mixture was maintained at 175 °C. calculate ΔG° for the following equilibria :
B <-> A ΔG1° = ?
B <-> C ΔG2° = ?
From the calculated values of del G s ...
indicate the stability of A,B,C.
yah!!
ΔG = -RT lnK
u know the equilibrium percentage of each.......
so can calculate K.......
del(G) mil jaega as temp. is also given [1]
