Gibb's Helmholtz equation
Question

For a certain reaction, ΔH0 and ΔS0 respectively are 400 KJ & 200 J/mol/K. The process is non-spontaneous at

Easy
Solution

\begin{array}{l} \Delta {H^o} = T\Delta {S^o}\\\\ T = \frac{{\Delta {H^o}}}{{\Delta {S^o}}} = \frac{{400}}{{0.2}} = 2000K\\\\ T > 2000K\,\,;\,\,Spon\tan eous\\ T < 2000K\,;\,nonspon\tan eous\\ T = 2000K\,;\,equillibrium \end{array}

 

G0=H0-TS0; G0=+ve-T+ve; G0 will be positive only when T<Teq;
