The values of DeltaH and DeltaS for the reaction, C("graphite") + CO_(2)(g) to 2CO(g) are 170 kJ and 170 J/K respectively. This reaction will be spontaneous at

Answer»

910 K
1110 K
510 K
710 K

Solution :For a spontaneous process , `DeltaG` MUST be negative.
Here, `DeltaG`will be negative when `T DELTAS gt DeltaH`
`DeltaH = 170 kJ = 170000`J
`DeltaS - 170 J K^(-1)"mol"^(-1)`
`TDeltaS gt DeltaH` only when ` T = (DeltaH)/(DeltaS) = (170000)/(170) = 1000K`
i.e greater than 1000 K or 1110 K.
