The standard reaction Gibbs energy for a chemical reaction at an absolute temperature T is given by, ΔrG°= A – BT Where A and B are non-zero constants. Which of the following is true about this reaction of the following is true about this reaction of the following is true about this? Correct Answer Endothermic if, A > 0
Concept:
According to Gibb’s Helmholtz equation, we get,
ΔrG° = ΔrH° – TΔrS°
Given, ΔrG° = A – BT
On comparing above two equations, we get
A = ∆H° and ∆S° = B
We know that, if ∆H° is negative, reaction is exothermic and when it is positive, reaction is endothermic.
∴ A > 0, i.e, positive, reaction is endothermic.
