Following reaction occurring in an automobile `2C_(8)H_(18)(g)+25O_(2)(g) to 16CO_(2)(g)+18H_(2)O(g)`. The sign of `triangleH, triangleS and triangleG` would be-

A

`+, -, +`

B

`-, +, -`

C

`-, +, +`

D

`+, +, -`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

For Combustion reaction, `DeltaH` is negative, `Deltan=(16+18)-(25+2)=+7", so " DeltaS` is +ve, reaction is spontaneous, hence `DeltaG` is -ve.
