Hydrogenation, the addition of hydrogen to an organic compound, is an industrially important reaction. Calculate Δ_r H°, Δ_r S°, and Δ_rG° for the hydrogenation of octene, C₈H₁₆, to give octane, C₈H₁₈, at 25°C. Is the reaction product- or reactant-favored at equilibrium?
C₈H₁₆(g) + H₂(g) → C₈H₁₈(g)
Along with data in Appendix L, the following information is needed for this calculation.
