[Olympiad] For a specific reaction, ΔH = -100 kJ/mol and ΔS = -200 J/mol·K. Below what temperature (in Kelvin) will the reaction be spontaneous?
-
200 K
-
400 K
-
500 K
-
1000 K
📝 Detailed explanation
Spontaneity requires ΔG < 0. ΔG = ΔH - TΔS.
-100,000 - T(-200) < 0
-100,000 + 200T < 0
200T < 100,000
T < 500 K.
