Entropy of HOCl and OCl
« on: April 25, 2011, 08:37:58 AM »
Hi, I am trying to calculate the free energy of the dissociation of HOCl, but am really struggling to find any entropy values for HOCl and OCl- and H+. Does anyone know where I could find them, or how I could obtain them in someone way?
I would be extremly appreciative of any ideas or suggestions regarding how to solve this issue.

Many thanks.

Not sure about entropy, but you can calculate the free energy by using the equilibrium constant.

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, I am investigating the effects of the sign of free energy {delta G} at various temperatures, and was really hoping to find entropy values so I could calculate the minimum temperature at which the dissociation of HOCl would occur.
