SO3(g) decomposes to produce SO2(g) and O2(g), as represented by
2SO3(g)⇄2SO2(g)+O2(g) ΔH°=180kJ/molrxn
Under what temperature conditions will the reaction be thermodynamically favored: high temperatures, low temperatures, all temperatures, or no temperatures? Justify your answer in terms of the change in enthalpy and the change in entropy during the reaction.
G=H-TS.
For a reaction to be spontaneous, the G must be negative.
Therefore, the favorable conditions are a negative H value and a positive S value.
For the above reaction, H is positive.
Also, S is positive as two moles of gaseous reactants are giving three moles of gaseous products.
Therefore, to make the overall G value negative,high Temperatures are required.
Therefore, the correct answer is high temperatures.
Thank You!
