The correct Answer is:
To determine when a reaction with \(\Delta H > 0\) and \(\Delta S > 0\) proceeds spontaneously, we can use the Gibbs free energy equation: \[ \Delta G = \Delta H - T \Delta S \] ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Gibbs Free Energy Equation**: The Gibbs free energy change (\(\Delta G\)) determines the spontaneity of a reaction. A reaction is spontaneous when \(\Delta G < 0\). 2. **Identify the Conditions**: We are given that \(\Delta H > 0\) (the reaction is endothermic) and \(\Delta S > 0\) (the disorder of the system increases). 3. **Set Up the Inequality for Spontaneity**: For the reaction to be spontaneous, we need: \[ \Delta G < 0 \] Substituting the Gibbs free energy equation: \[ \Delta H - T \Delta S < 0 \] 4. **Rearranging the Inequality**: Rearranging the equation gives: \[ \Delta H < T \Delta S \] 5. **Determine the Temperature Condition**: Since \(\Delta H\) is positive, for the inequality \(\Delta H < T \Delta S\) to hold true, the temperature \(T\) must be sufficiently high. Therefore, the reaction will be spontaneous at high temperatures. 6. **Conclusion**: The reaction proceeds spontaneously when the temperature \(T\) is greater than \(\frac{\Delta H}{\Delta S}\). ### Final Answer: The reaction proceeds spontaneously when \(T > \frac{\Delta H}{\Delta S}\).

A change in the free energy of a system at constant temperature and pressure will be: Delta_(sys)G = Delta_(sys)H -T Delta_(sys)S At constant temperature and pressure Delta_(sys) G lt 0 (spontaneous) Delta_(sys)G = 0 (equilibrium) Delta_(sys)G gt 0 (non-spontaneous) If both DeltaH and Deltas are negative, the reaction will be spontaneous

Free enegry , G = H - TS , is state function that indicates whther a reaction is spontaneous or non-spontaneous. If you think of TS as the part of the system's enegry that is disordered already, then (H -TS) is the part of the system's energy that is still ordered and therefore free to cause spontaneous change by becoming disordered. Also, DeltaG = DeltaH - T DeltaS From the second law of thermodynamics, a reaction is spontaneous if Delta_("total")S is positive, non-spontaneous if Delta_("total")S is negative, and at equilibrium if Delta_('total")S is zero. Since, -T DeltaS = DeltaG and since DeltaG and DeltaS have opposite sings, we can restate the thermodynamic criterion for the spontaneity of a reaction carried out a constant temperature and pressure. IF DeltaG lt 0 , the reaction is spontaneous. If DeltaG gt 0 , the reaction is non-spontaneous. If DeltaG = 0 , the reaction is at equilibrium.
