?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 KExplanation / 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
