For a certain reaction, H ^ = 40\ kJ and S ^ = 80\ JK ^ -1 . Find the temperature so that G ^ = 0
For a certain reaction, H ^ = 40\ kJ and S ^ = 80\ JK ^ -1 . Find the temperature so that G ^ = 0
A. 500\ K
Using the Gibbs free energy equation: G^ = H^ - T S^ For G^ = 0, we get: T = H^ S^ Given H^ = 40\ kJ = 40000\ J and S^ = 80\ J K ^ -1 . Substituting the values: T = 40000 80 = 500\ K Answer: 500\ K
