Respuesta :

The Reaction is spontaneous when temperature is 430 K. Hence, Option (C) is correct.

What is Spontaneous reaction ?

Reactions are favorable when they result in a decrease in enthalpy and an increase in entropy of the system.

When both of these conditions are met, the reaction occurs naturally.

Spontaneous reaction is a reaction that favors the formation of products at the conditions under which the reaction is occurring.

According to Gibb's equation:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

ΔG = Gibbs free energy

ΔH = enthalpy change  = +62.4 kJ/mol

ΔS = entropy change  = +0.145 kJ/molK

T = temperature in Kelvin

  • ΔG  = +ve, reaction is non spontaneous
  • ΔG = -ve, reaction is spontaneous
  • ΔG   = 0, reaction is in equilibrium

ΔH - TΔS = 0 for reaction to be spontaneous

T = ΔH / ΔS

Here,

T = 500K

Thus the Reaction is spontaneous when temperature is 500 K.
