formation of the products of this reaction? Explain
(b) Does the tendency of reactions to proceed to a state of maximum entropy favor the
formation of the products of this reaction? Explain.
(c) State whether an increase in temperature drives this reaction to the right, to the left, or has
no effect. Explain.
(d) State whether a decrease in the volume of the system at constant temperature drives this
reaction to the right, to the left or has no effect. Explain?
