The document discusses the equilibrium reactions of n-butanol dehydration and how the change in Gibbs free energy (ΔG) of the reactions varies with temperature. It states that a more negative ΔG can be achieved at a higher reaction temperature, allowing for a higher equilibrium conversion. It also mentions that the fugacity coefficient of a gas at low pressure and high temperature approximates that of an ideal gas.

G of above reactions as a function of T (reaction temperature) is shown below:
Therefore, by choosing the right reaction T, we can get higher equilibrium conversion since dG becomes more negative !ugacity coe"cient (f # $) of gas at low $ressure and relatively high Temperature % &, since at those conditions gas behaves as an ideal gas'
