A student wants to measure the heat of crystallization of sodium acetate trihydrate. The student takes 50 g of sodium acetate trihydrate and dissolves it in 100 ml of water at 70°C. The solution is then allowed to cool to 20°C, during which the sodium acetate trihydrate crystallizes out. The student measures the temperature change during this process and finds that the temperature drops to 45°C. What is the heat of crystallization of sodium acetate trihydrate in kJ/mol?

A student wants to know how changing the volume affects the position of the equilibrium for the reaction N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⇌ 2NH3(g). If the reaction is initially at equilibrium in a 2 L container at 400 K and then the volume is decreased to 1 L, what will be the new concentrations of each gas at equilibrium? (Assume that the pressure remains constant and that the reaction follows the ideal gas law.)

A student wants to investigate the thermodynamic properties of a system undergoing a non-equilibrium process. The system is initially at a temperature of 300 K and pressure of 1 atm. A sudden expansion of the system causes the pressure to drop to 0.5 atm while maintaining a constant temperature. Calculate the change in entropy of the system during the process assuming ideal gas behavior.

A student wants to investigate the effect of volume change on the equilibrium position of the reaction 2SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇄ 2SO3(g). The initial equilibrium concentration of SO3 is 0.1 M at a constant temperature. The volume is reduced by half at equilibrium. Calculate the new equilibrium concentrations of SO2, O2 and SO3 assuming the equilibrium constant (Kc) of the reaction remains constant.
