Identify the formula for the change in entropy of the universe: \( \Delta S_{univ} = \Delta S_{sys} + \Delta S_{surr} \).
Recognize that \( \Delta S_{sys} \) is given as \( \Delta S^{\circ}_{rxn} = -282 \text{ J/K} \).
Calculate \( \Delta S_{surr} \) using the formula \( \Delta S_{surr} = -\frac{\Delta H^{\circ}_{rxn}}{T} \). Convert \( \Delta H^{\circ}_{rxn} \) from kJ to J by multiplying by 1000.
Substitute the values into the formula: \( \Delta S_{surr} = -\frac{135,000 \text{ J}}{298 \text{ K}} \).
Add \( \Delta S_{sys} \) and \( \Delta S_{surr} \) to find \( \Delta S_{univ} \). If \( \Delta S_{univ} > 0 \), the reaction is spontaneous; if \( \Delta S_{univ} < 0 \), it is non-spontaneous.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Gibbs Free Energy

Gibbs Free Energy (G) is a thermodynamic potential that helps predict the spontaneity of a reaction at constant temperature and pressure. It is calculated using the equation ΔG = ΔH - TΔS, where ΔH is the change in enthalpy, T is the temperature in Kelvin, and ΔS is the change in entropy. A negative ΔG indicates a spontaneous reaction, while a positive ΔG suggests non-spontaneity.

Entropy (ΔS)

Entropy (ΔS) is a measure of the disorder or randomness in a system. In the context of chemical reactions, a positive change in entropy (ΔS > 0) typically favors spontaneity, as systems tend to evolve towards greater disorder. Conversely, a negative change in entropy (ΔS < 0) indicates a decrease in disorder, which can hinder spontaneity depending on the enthalpy change.

Enthalpy (ΔH)

Enthalpy (ΔH) is a measure of the total heat content of a system and reflects the energy absorbed or released during a reaction. A positive ΔH indicates that the reaction is endothermic (absorbs heat), while a negative ΔH indicates an exothermic reaction (releases heat). The sign and magnitude of ΔH, in conjunction with ΔS, are crucial for determining the overall spontaneity of a reaction through the Gibbs Free Energy equation.
