The concepts used to solve this question are the characteristics of endothermic and exothermic reactions, and the Gibbs free energy equation to determine a spontaneous reaction.
The change in Gibb's free energy at constant temperature and pressure is given as;
Where, is Gibb's free energy change; is change in enthalpy of the reaction; T is temperature of the reaction; is change in the entropy of the reaction.
Enthalpy (H) in thermodynamics is defined as the heat content of a reaction. Entropy (S) is termed as the quantification of disorder or randomness of a reaction. Gibb's free energy change helps to determine the direction of the reaction.
Part 1
The question states that it is an endothermic reaction with negative entropy. This means that the change in enthalpy will be positive and change in entropy will be negative. That is-
The change in Gibb's free energy at constant temperature and pressure is given as-
Now, the change in enthalpy and change in entropy can be written as follows,
Substitute these values in the above equation;
, thus, the reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction at all temperatures.
Part 2
The question states that it is an exothermic reaction with negative entropy. This means that both the change in enthalpy and change in entropy will be negative. That is;
The change in Gibb's free energy at constant temperature and pressure is given as-
Now, the change in enthalpy and change in entropy can be written as follows,
Substitute these values in the above equation as follows:
will be negative, only when the conditions are such that the value ofis greater than.

Question 5 The spontaneity of a reaction depends both on the enthalpy change, Delta H, and entropy change, Delta S. Reactions that release energy produce more stable products, and the universe tends toward disorder. Thus, an exothermic reaction with a positive entropy change will always be spontaneous. Mathematically, this relationship can be represented as where Delta G is the change in Gibbs free energy and T is the Kelvin temperature. If Delta G is negative, then the reaction is spontaneous....
An endothermic reaction with positive entropy change can be spontaneous only at low temperatures True or false
A reaction is spontaneous. What can you conclude about the reverse reaction? It must be endothermic. It is non-spontaneous. It must have a decrease in entropy. It is in equilibrium.
