Question

1. (2)What is the sign of the entropy change of the system (ΔSsys)(methanol (liq, at 290K) → methanol (g, at 400 K))? Provide a brief explanation.

 

2. (2)Consider the following reaction at constant pressure. Use the information here to determine the value of ΔSsurr at 298 K. Predict whether or not this reaction will be spontaneous at this temperature. N2(g) + 2 O2(g) → 2 NO2(g)  ΔH = +66.4 kJ

 

3. (1)Under what condition is a reaction with a negative ΔH and a positive ΔS spontaneous?
