?H = +48 kJ, ?S = +135 J/K at 400 K ?H = +48 kJ, ?S = -135 J/K at 400 K ?H = -48 kJ, ?S = +135 J/K at 400 K ?H = -48 kJ, ?S = -135 J/K at 400 K

Explanation / Answer

Part A::

The equation you need for these problems is the one for Gibbs free energy, or delta G

delta G = delta H - T (delta S)
where T is temperature

If the Gibbs free energy is negative, the process is spontaneous. If it's positive, it's non-spontaneous.

so your answers would be

?H = +48 kJ, ?S = +135 J/K at 400 K

?H = -48 kJ, ?S = +135 J/K at 400 K

Part B::

If ?H is negative then the reaction is exothermic

So your answer would be

?H = -48 kJ, ?S = -135 J/K at 400 K ?H = -48 kJ, ?S = +135 J/K at 400 K
