Thermodynamics Question Regarding Gibbs Free Energy, Enthalpy, Entropy

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion centers on the concepts of Gibbs Free Energy, enthalpy, and entropy in thermodynamics. The user seeks clarification on the spontaneity of a reaction that does not involve a change in state or temperature, indicating a focus on the principles governing enthalpy and entropy. Additionally, there is a query regarding the bond energy of a triple bond, which is essential for understanding molecular stability and reaction dynamics.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Gibbs Free Energy and its equation (ΔG = ΔH - TΔS)
  • Knowledge of enthalpy (ΔH) and entropy (ΔS) concepts
  • Familiarity with spontaneous reactions and their criteria
  • Basic chemistry knowledge regarding bond energies, specifically triple bonds
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the relationship between enthalpy and entropy in determining reaction spontaneity
  • Study the concept of bond energy, focusing on the bond energy of triple bonds
  • Explore Gibbs Free Energy calculations for various chemical reactions
  • Investigate the impact of temperature on enthalpy and entropy in thermodynamic processes
USEFUL FOR

Chemistry students, educators, and professionals in the field of thermodynamics or physical chemistry seeking to deepen their understanding of reaction spontaneity and energy concepts.

Hello,
is someone able to explain why these two are wrong. I am not sure how to figure out the enthalpy direction as the reaction is not changing state of matter, nor is it changing temperature.

(Please solve without calculating anything)

Thank you
