How to Calculate Standard State Gibbs Energy of Bromine Vapor at 298K?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on calculating the standard state Gibbs energy of formation for bromine vapor at 298K using the Clausius-Clapeyron equation. The normal boiling point of liquid bromine is established at 58.2°C, with an equilibrium vapor pressure of 100 torr at 9.3°C. The calculation involves determining the change in Gibbs free energy using the formula dG=VdP=RTdlnP, while neglecting the Poynting correction. The free energy values for both the liquid and vapor states at 298K and their respective equilibrium pressures are considered to derive the absolute Gibbs energy value.

PREREQUISITES

Summary: Please help me with this problem ,I can't do it

The normal boiling point of liquid bromine is 58.2°C. At 9.3°C the equilibrium vapor
pressure of liquid bromine is 100 torr. From this data,

calculate the standard state Gibbs
energy of formation of bromine vapor at room temperature, ?G? f ,298K

I know that I have to use Claudius Clapeyron équation ,but How in the world I will get an absolute Gibbs energy value?

If you calculate the equilibrium vapor pressure at 298K (25 C), you can calculate the change in Gibbs free energy of the vapor in going from this pressure to the hypothetical state of 1 bar and 298K using ##dG=VdP=RTd\ln P##. Neglecting the Poynting correction, the free energy of the liquid at 298 and at the equilibrium vapor pressure is 0. And this is also the free energy of the vapor at 298 and at the equilibrium vapor pressure.
