Assuming $\Delta$ S° And $\Delta$ H° Do Not Vary with Temperature, at What Temperature Will

question 11

Short Answer

Assuming $\Delta$ S° and $\Delta$ H° do not vary with temperature, at what temperature will the reaction shown below become spontaneous?
C(s)+ H₂O(g) $\rarr$ H₂(g)+ CO(s)( $\Delta$ S° = 133.6 J/K·mol; $\Delta$ H° = 131.3 kJ/mol)

Definitions:

Strong Acid

An acid that completely dissociates into its ions in water, releasing all of its hydrogen atoms as hydrogen ions.

Acidity

A measure of the ability of a solution to donate hydrogen ions (H+) and thereby lower its pH.

pH

A scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution, with values ranging typically from 0 (highly acidic) to 14 (highly basic).
