Thermodynamics Question 66
Question: For a reaction $ \Delta H=9.08kJmo{{l}^{-1}} $ and $ \Delta S=35.7J{{K}^{-1}}mo{{l}^{-1}} $ Which of the following statements is correct for the reaction
[AMU (Engg.) 2000]
Options:
A) Reversible and Isothermal
B) Reversible and Exothermic
C) Spontaneous and Endothermic
D) Spontaneous and Exothermic
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
$ \Delta H $ and $ \Delta S $ both are $ +ve $ for spontaneous change, and $ \Delta H=+ve $ for endothermic reaction.
