For the gaseous equilibrium represented below, it is observed that greater amounts of PCl3 and Cl2 are produced as the temperature is increased. PCl5(g) ↔ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) (a) What is the sign of delta S° for the reaction? Explain. (b) What change, if any, will occur in DG° for the reaction as the temperature is increased? Explain your reasoning in terms of thermodynamic principles.
