Consider the reaction

KClO4(s)-->KCl(s)+2O2(g)

and the following table of values:

Substance ?G?f
(kJ/mol)
KClO4(s) -304.4
KCl(s) -408.2
O2(g) 0

State whether it would be worthwhile to investigate finding a catalyst to use in this reaction under standard conditions and explain why.

Yes, because ?G? is negative.
No, because ?G? is negative.
Yes, because ?G? is positive.
No, because ?G? is positive.
