For the reaction, Ag2O → 2Ag(s) + 1/2O2(g), calculate the temperature at which the free energy change is zero. At a temperature lower than this, predict whether the forward or the reverse reaction will be favored. Give a reason. (ΔH = +30.56 kJ; ΔS = +0.066 kJ/K/mol)

For the decomposition of $\mathrm{Ag}_{2} \mathrm{O}$ : $$ 2 \mathrm{Ag}_{2} \mathrm{O}(s) \longrightarrow 4 \mathrm{Ag}(s)+\mathrm{O}_{2}(g) $$ (a) Obtain an expression for $\Delta G^{\circ}$ as a function of temperature. Prepare a table of $\Delta G^{\circ}$ values at $100 \mathrm{~K}$ intervals between $100 \mathrm{~K}$ and $500 \mathrm{~K}$. (b) Calculate the temperature at which $\Delta G^{\circ}=0$.
The temperature at which the reaction $$ \mathrm{Ag}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{s}) \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{Ag}(\mathrm{s})+\mathrm{O}_{2}(\mathrm{~g}) $$ is at equilibrium is $\ldots \ldots \ldots$ Given $\Delta \mathrm{H}=30 \mathrm{~kJ}$ mol and $\Delta S=0.066 \mathrm{~kJ} \mathrm{k}^{\prime} \mathrm{mol}^{\prime}$. (1) $462.12 \mathrm{~K}$ (2) $362.12 \mathrm{~K}$ (3) $262.12 \mathrm{~K}$ (4) $562.12 \mathrm{~K}$
