A particular reaction carried out at 298 K has a ΔH = -108 kJ and ΔS = +286 J/K. What is the Gibbs free energy of the reaction? Is the reaction spontaneous? If not, at what temperature would this reaction be spontaneous?
Added by Jeffrey A.
Step 1
We are given the enthalpy change (ΔH) of the reaction as -108 kJ, the entropy change (ΔS) as +286 J/K, and the temperature (T) at which the reaction is carried out as 298 K. We are asked to find the Gibbs free energy (ΔG) of the reaction and determine if the Show more…

For a particular chemical reaction, ΔH° = +5.7 kJ and ΔS° = -23 J/K. Under what temperature condition is the reaction spontaneous?
Madhur L.
The reaction has ΔrH° = -117 kJ and ΔrS° = -435 J/K. The reaction will be spontaneous when the temperature is ______, and the reaction is ________ driven.
Adi S.
A reaction has $\Delta H=-356 \mathrm{kJ}$ and $\Delta S=-36$ $\mathrm{J} / \mathrm{K} .$ Calculate $\Delta G$ at $25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ to confirm that the reaction is spontaneous.
