GATE 2015 Chemical Engineering Question 18: Calculate Equilibrium Conversion for Gas Cracking Reaction A→B+C with ΔG°

```

Chemical Engineering > GATE 2015 > Chemical Equilibrium

For a gas phase cracking reaction A → B + C at 300°C, the Gibbs free energy of the reaction at this temperature is ΔG° = -2750 J/mol. The pressure is 1 bar. The gas phase can be assumed to be ideal. The universal gas constant R = 8.314 J/mol.K. The fractional molar conversion of A at equilibrium is

A

0.44

B

0.50

C

0.64

D

0.80

Correct : c
