Problem 79 The equilibrium constant for the reaction$$2 \mathrm{Fe}^{3+}(a q)+\mathrm{Hg}_{2}^{2+}(a q) \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{Fe}^{2+}(a q)+2 \mathrm{Hg}^{2+}(a q)
is $K_{c}=9.1 \times 10^{-6}$ at 298 $\mathrm{K}$
(a) What is $\Delta G^{\circ}$ at this temperature?
(b) If standard-state concentrations of the reactants and products are mixed, in which direction does the reaction proceed?
(c) Calculate $\Delta G$ when $\left[\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}\right]=0.20 M,\left[\mathrm{Hg}_{2}^{2+}\right]=0.010 M,$ $\left[\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}\right]=0.010 M,$ and $\left[\mathrm{Hg}^{2+}\right]=0.025 M$ . In which direction will the reaction proceed to achieve equilibrium?
