A reaction has ΔH° < 0 and ΔS° > 0. When is it thermodynamically favored?
A.At all temperatures
B.Only at high temperatures
C.Only at low temperatures
D.Never
Explanation
Core Concept
ΔG° = ΔH° − TΔS° is negative for every T because both terms favor it: negative ΔH° and −TΔS° with positive ΔS°.
Correct Answer
AAt all temperatures
