When enthalpy and entropy change for a chemical reaction are – 2.5 x 10³ cals and 7.4 cals deg⁻¹ respectively predict the reaction at 298 K is
Options
(a) irreversible
(b) reversible
(c) spontaneous
(d) non spontaneous
Correct Answer:
spontaneous
Explanation:
Enthalpy change, ∆H = -2.5 ⨯ 10³ cal
Entropy change, ∆G = 7.4 kcal deg⁻¹
Temperature, T = 298 K
As, ∆G = ∆H -T∆S
⇒ ∆G = -2.5 ⨯ 10³ – 298 ⨯ 7.4 = -ve value
For spontaneity of reaction, negative value of ∆G is required, so the reaction is spontaneous.
