Determine the standard Gibbs energy change of reaction at 325 K for the following gas-phase transformation:

P = 1 bar
The partial pressure at equilibrium due to component A is equal to 0.15 bar.


Relate equilibrium constant to partial pressures of each compound:



Assume the fugacity coefficients are both 1 (ideal gas condition).

By definition mole fraction is equal to partial pressure divided by total pressure.



Since the reference pressure and total pressure are each equal to 1 bar, the equilibrium expressions simplifies to:



Evaluate equilibrium constant for the reaction:
