Calculate ΔG° for the reaction SiCl₄(g) + 2Mg(s) → 2MgCl₂(s) + Si(s) Substance: SiCl₄(g) Mg(s) MgCl₂(s) Si(s) ΔG°_f (kJ/mol): -616.98 0 -591.79 0

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

ΔG° for the reaction is calculated using the formula: ΔG° = ΣΔG°f(products) - ΣΔG°f(reactants). For this reaction, ΔG° = [2(-591.79) + 0] - [-616.98 + 2(0)] = -1183.58 + 616.98 = -566.60 kJ.
