[Olympiad] For a reaction, ΔH = +40 kJ/mol and ΔS = +100 J/mol·K. At what temperature (in Kelvin) does the reaction become spontaneous?

  1. 200 K
  2. 300 K
  3. 400 K
  4. 500 K

📝 Detailed explanation

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS. Spontaneity starts when ΔG < 0. 40,000 - T(100) < 0 => 100T > 40,000 => T > 400 K.
