Consider the reaction
2CH4 + 7O2 → 4CO2 + 6H2O for which ΔH = -2855 kJ and ΔS = 92.70 J/K at 298.15 K.
1. Calculate the entropy change of the UNIVERSE when 1.891 moles of CH4 react under standard conditions at 298.15 K. S_universe = J/K
2. Is this reaction reactant or product favored under standard conditions?
3. If the reaction is product favored, is it enthalpy favored, entropy favored, or favored by both enthalpy and entropy? If the reaction is reactant favored, choose 'reactant favored'.
