For the reaction C(s) + H2O(g) CO(g) + H2(g) H° = 133.3 kJ/mol and S° = 121.6 J/K mol at 298 K. At temperatures greater than ________ °C this reaction is spontaneous under standard conditions.
G = H-TS
for spontaneous reactions G = 0
0 = H-TS
0 = 133.3 -T * 0.1216
133.3 = T*0.1216
T = 133.3/0.1216 = 1096.2K
823.2C0 greater than the this temperature
for spontaneous reactions G<0
H-TS <0
TS> H
T > H/S
> 133.3/0.1216
> 1096.2K
T > 823.2C0
