Thermodynamics Question Regarding Gibbs Free Energy, Enthalpy, Entropy

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on understanding Gibbs Free Energy in relation to enthalpy and entropy without performing calculations. The user seeks clarification on why their interpretations of these concepts are incorrect, particularly in the context of a reaction that does not involve a change in state or temperature. The question also touches on the spontaneity of the reaction and the bond energy associated with a triple bond. Key concepts include the relationship between enthalpy, entropy, and spontaneity in thermodynamic processes. The inquiry highlights the complexities of thermodynamic principles in chemical reactions.

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
