$How Accurate is the Shortcut Vant Hoff Method for Chemical Equilibrium? Organized by textbook: https://learncheme.com/ Uses a spreadsheet (https://learncheme.com/student-resources/excel-files/) that uses Gibbs minimization to compare the equilibrium mole fractions for the reaction 0.5N2 + 1.5H2 to NH3 for two approaches: (1) a temperature-dependent heat of reaction, and (2) a constant heat of reaction.
