Thermodynamics stability is often used in chemical reactions to predict extent of reaction or to predict the preferred product in some reaction. Thermodynamically amore stable substance will be the one which has lower Gibb's free energy.In various cases,it might be decided on the basis of enthalpy, however , that may not always be true. The thermodynamic data Therefore can be used for prdicting stability among isotopes and to decide the possible transformation.Based on this information and the data given below, answer the questions that follow. Date:{:(DeltaH_(f)^(@) "of" Sn_(("white")) =0,DeltaH_(f)^(@) "of" Sn_(("grey")) =- 2.1 kJ//"mole"),(S^(@) "of" Sn_(("white")) = 0,S^(@) "of" Sn_(("grey")) = 44 J//K-"mole"):} All above data at 300K. Density of Sn_((w)) = 7.36 g//ml Density of Sn_((g)) = 5.769 gm//ml One such transformation is 'tin pest' which is an autocatalytic, allotropic transformation of the element tin causing deterioration of tin objects at low temperatures. As temperature is reduced, what can be predicted for objects containing tin ?

Answer»

Transformation from white tin to GREY tin occurs changing it to a more BRITTLE form
There will be a contraction in volume observed due to the ALLOTROPIC change
The reaction will slow down after after initiation
The objects will become STRONGER
