From the thermodynamic data, ΔSsys for the given fuel cell reaction is negative but the reaction is still spontaneous. How can the negative entropy of the system be justified as spontaneous or is it simply violation of second law of thermodynamics? Explain in detail the various factors that can lead to the spontaneity of this reaction.
1⁄2 O2(g) + H2(g) → H2O(l)
A voltaic cell was build upon the following redox reaction:
4 Ag (s) + O2 (g) + 4 H+ (aq) →4 Ag (s) + 2 H2O (l)
Under standard condition, the cell produces 0.43 V voltage. What is the ΔGo for this reaction? Is this reaction spontaneous or non-spontaneous?
