A chemical reaction is spontaneous at 298 K but non-spontaneous at 350 K. Which one of the following is true for the reaction

Answer»

`{:(DeltaG,DeltaH,DeltaS),("_","_","+"):}`
`{:(DeltaG,DeltaH,DeltaS),("+","+","+"):}`
`{:(DeltaG,DeltaH,DeltaS),("-","+","-"):}`
`{:(DeltaG,DeltaH,DeltaS),("-","-","-"):}`

Solution :`DeltaG=DeltaH-TDELTAS`
For first condition, REACTION will be spontaneous at all temperatures.
For second option as `DeltaH=+ve` and `DeltaS` is +ve THUS`DeltaG=underset(+ve)underbrace(DeltaH)-underset((-ve))underbrace(TDeltaS)`
If TEMPERATURE is high, `TDeltaS` will have higher negative value and reaction will be spontaneous
Thus not true for given reaction.
In case (c), `DeltaG`=ve, `DeltaS=+ve`
impliesspontaneous at all temperatures
In case (e), `DeltaG=underset(-ve)underbrace(DeltaH)-underset(+ve)underbrace(TDeltaS)`
At high temperature, second TERM will have high positive value and reaction will be non-spontaneous, thus case (e) is true for given example.
