Consider the following reaction, which is carried out at 300 K:
CH3CH2OH + 3O2 → 2CO2 + 3H2O ∆H = –1,235 kJ/mol and ∆S = +0.22kJ/mol•K
1.) What is the value of ∆G? Show your work.
2.)Classify the reaction as spontaneous or nonspontaneous.
3.)Suggest why the value for ∆S is positive in this reaction
