Question:

Metals generally react with hydrogen halides to give the metal halide and hydrogen. Determine whether this is true for silver by calculating Δ_rG° for the reaction with each of the hydrogen halides.

The required free energies of formation are: HX -AG(kJ/mol) AgX -AG(kJ/mol) HF 273.2 AgF 193.8 HCI 95.09 AgCl 109.76 96.90 66.19 HBr HI 53.45 1.56 AgBr Agl
