The value of standard enthalpy for
The value of standard enthalpy for
Put the values,
On the basis of above calculation, second reaction is preferred over first reaction as the value of change in Gibbs free energy is negative that is
Now, for calculating temperature:
Reaction is spontaneous at low temperatures and change in enthalpy favors the production of acetic acid which is exothermic implies
Therefore,
Put the values from second reaction,
=
Therefore, at temperatures lower than 622 K, the magnitude of
