Answer:
1. d. The reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction at all temperatures.
2. c. The reaction is spontaneous at low temperatures.
Explanation:
The spontaneity of a reaction is associated with the Gibbs free energy (ΔG). When ΔG < 0, the reaction is spontaneous. When ΔG > 0, the reaction is non-spontaneous. ΔG is related to the enthalpy (ΔH) and the entropy (ΔS) through the following expression:
ΔG = ΔH - T. ΔS [1]
where,
T is the absolute temperature (T is always positive)
<em>1. What can be said about an Endothermic reaction with a negative entropy change?</em>
If the reaction is endothermic, ΔH > 0. Let's consider ΔS < 0. According to eq. [1], ΔG is always positive. The reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction at any temperature. This means that the reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction at all temperatures.
<em>2. What can be said about an Exothermic reaction with a negative entropy change?</em>
If the reaction is exothermic, ΔH < 0. Let's consider ΔS < 0. According to eq. [1], ΔG will be negative when |ΔH| > |T.ΔS|, that is, at low temperatures.
