Question
  1. Given the ΔH° and ΔS°, calculate the ΔG° values for the following reactions and indicate whether the reaction is spontaneous at standard conditions. If a reaction is not spontaneous, state what may be done to make the reaction spontaneous.

ΔH° (kJ)       ΔS° (J/K)

  1. C(graphite) + 2H2(g) CH4(g)                       -74.9      +186.3
  2. CH3CH3(g) H2(g) + C2H4(g)                      +137      +121
  3. N2(g) + 2H2(g) N2H4(l)                               +50.6      -331 2.
