    (a) + 55.7 KJ/mol

    (b) 1.74 x 10-10

    (c) + 70 KJ/mol

    (d) 5.44 x 10-13

    Explanation:

    (a) ∆G reaction = n ∆Gproducts - m ∆Greactants

    Where, = sigma = sum of,

    ∆ = delta = change in,

    n and m = stoichiometric coefficients of the products and reactants from the balanced equation respectively.

    For AgCl, it ionizes in the form:

    AgCl (s) ↔ Ag + (aq) + Cl - (aq)

    ∆G reaction = [ {1 x ∆Gf (Ag + (aq)) } + { 1 x ∆Gf (Cl - (aq) } ] - [ { 1 x ∆Gf (AgCl (s)) } ]

    ∆G reaction = [ { 1 x 77.1 } + { 1 x (-131.2) } ] - [ 1 x (-109.8) ]

    ∆G reaction = [ 77.1 - 131.2 ] - [ - 109.8 ]

    ∆G reaction = - 54.1 + 109.8

    ∆G reaction = + 55.7 KJ/mol

    (b) Ksp = [Ag+] [Cl-]

    At equilibrium,

    ∆G = - RT InK

    Ksp = e (-∆G/RT)

    Where, ∆G = 55.7 KJ/mol = 55.7 x 1000 J/mol = 55,700 J/mol,

    R = 8.314 J/mol. K,

    T = 25oC = 25 + 273.15 = 298.15 K

    Ksp = e [ - 55,700 J/mol / 8.314 J/mol. K x 298.15 K ]

    Ksp = e [ - 22.470 ]

    Ksp = 1.74 x 10-10

    (c) For AgBr, ionizing in the form:

    AgBr (s) ↔ Ag + (aq) + Br - (aq)

    ∆G reaction = [ {1 x ∆Gf (Ag + (aq)) } + { 1 x ∆GfBr - (aq) } ] - [ { 1 x ∆Gf (AgBr (s)) } ]

    ∆G reaction = [ { 1 x 77.1 } + { 1 x (-104) } ] - [ 1 x (-96.9) ]

    ∆G reaction = [ 77.1 - 104 ] - [ - 96.9 ]

    ∆G reaction = - 26.9 + 96.9

    ∆G reaction = + 70 KJ/mol

    (d) Ksp = [Ag+] [Br-]

    At equilibrium,

    ∆G = - RT InK

    Ksp = e (-∆G/RT)

    Where, ∆G = 70 KJ/mol = 70 x 1000 J/mol = 70,000 J/mol,

    R = 8.314 J/mol. K,

    T = 25oC = 25 + 273.15 = 298.15 K

    Ksp = e [ - 70,000 J/mol / 8.314 J/mol. K x 298.15 K ]

    Ksp = e [ - 28.2393 ]

    Ksp = 5.44 x 10-13
