(a) Determine whether the reaction, CH3CH2CH2OH(l) + (9/2)O2(g)
→ 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g), at 25 degrees Celsius, is spontaneous in an
(i) isolated system and (ii) an open system. ΔHf°(CH3CH2CH2OH(l)) =
-302.54 kJ mol-1; ΔHf°(CO2(g)) = -393.509 kJ mol-1; ΔHf°(H2O(g)) =
-241.83 kJ mol-1 ΔS°(CH3CH2CH2OH(l)) = 192.8 J K-1 mol-1;
ΔS°(O2(g)) = 205.07 J K-1 mol-1; ΔS°(CO2(g)) = 213.74 J K-1 mol-1;
ΔS°(H2O(g)) = 188.84 J K-1 mol-1 (b) What is the difference between
a closed system and an open system?
