For a certain reaction H=-225 ~kJ and S=-150 JK ⁻¹ . Find the temperature so that G is zero.
Options
- A1500 K
- B1450 K
- C1340 K
- D1300 K
Correct answer
A. 1500 K
Step-by-step solution
The temperature where G becomes zero corresponds to the condition G = H - T S = 0 . For H = -225 kJ and S = -150 JK ⁻¹ , convert H to consistent units: H = -225, !000 J . Solving 0 = H - T S yields T = H S = -225, !000 J -150 JK ⁻¹ = 1, !500 K . The temperature at which G = 0 is therefore 1, !500 K . The correct option is A.
