Problem

At 298 K298\,\text{K}, a hypothetical reaction has ΔH∘=−125 kJ mol−1\Delta H^\circ = -125\,\text{kJ}\,\text{mol}^{-1} and ΔG∘=−95 kJ mol−1\Delta G^\circ = -95\,\text{kJ}\,\text{mol}^{-1}. Assuming ΔH\Delta H and ΔS\Delta S remain temperature-independent, above what temperature will the reaction cease to be spontaneous (ΔG\Delta G becomes positive)? a) 392 K392\,\text{K} b) 770 K770\,\text{K} c) 1240 K1240\,\text{K} d) 940 K940\,\text{K}
