When enthalpy and entropy change for a chemical reaction are `-2.5 xx10^(3)` cals and `7.4` cals `deg^(-1)` respectively. Predict that reaction at 298 K isA. spontaneousB. reversibleC. irreversibleD. non-spontaneous

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`DetlaG=DeltaH-TDeltaS`
`=-2500-298xx7.4=-2500-2205`
`=-4705 cal`
Since `DeltaG` is negative, the reaction is spontaneous
