Question:
A cave in Mexico was recently discovered to have some interesting chemistry. Hydrogen sulfide, H2S, reacts with oxygen in the cave to give sulfuric acid, which drips from the ceiling in droplets with a pH less than 1. The reaction occurring is H2S(g) + 2 O2(g) → H2SO4(ℓ). Calculate Δr H°, Δr S°, and ΔrG°. Is the reaction product-favored at equilibrium at 25°C? Is it enthalpy- or entropy-driven?
