Question
A key step in the production of sulfuric acid is the oxidation of SO2(g) to SO3(g):
2SO2(g) + O2(g) → 2SO3(g)
At 298 K, ΔG = 2141.6 kJ; ΔH = 2198.4 kJ; and ΔS = 2187.9 J/K.
(a) Use the data to decide if this reaction is spontaneous at 25°C, and predict how ΔG will change with increasing T.
(b) Assuming that ΔH and ΔS are constant with T (no phase change occurs), is the reaction spontaneous at 900.°C?
