question 26

Multiple Choice

For a particular reaction, the value of DH ^$\circ$ = +98.8 kJ and DS ^$\circ$ = +141.5 J/K. This reaction is

• B) reactant-favored, because DS^\(\circ\)_universe is positive
• C) reactant-favored, because DS^\(\circ\)_universe is negative
• D) product-favored, because DS^\(\circ\)_universe is negative
• E) cannot determine without further information
