A reaction is non-spontaneous at any temperature whenDelta H is positive and Delta S is positiveDelta H is positive and Delta S is negativeDelta H is negative and Delta S is negativeDelta H is negative and Delta S is positive

Respuesta :

Answer:

Delta H is positive and Delta S is negative

Explanation:

The expression for the standard change in free energy is:

[tex]\Delta G=\Delta H-T\times \Delta S[/tex]

Where,  

[tex]\Delta G[/tex] is the change in the Gibbs free energy.

T is the absolute temperature. (T in kelvins)

[tex]\Delta H[/tex] is the enthalpy change of the reaction.

[tex]\Delta S[/tex] is the change in entropy.

For a reaction to be non spontaneous, it means that:- [tex]\Delta G>0[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]\Delta H-T\times \Delta S>0[/tex]

For the above conditions to satisfy, [tex]\Delta H[/tex] must be positive and [tex]\Delta S[/tex] must be negative.
