If for a certain reaction \(\Delta_{r} H\) is \(30 \;kJ \;mol ^{-1}\) at \(450 \;K ,\) the value of \(\Delta_{r} S \left(\right.\) in \(\left. J K ^{-1} mol ^{-1}\right)\) for which the same reaction will be spontaneous at the same temperature is

  1. A \(-70\)
  2. B \(70\)
  3. C \(-33\)
  4. D \(33\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(70\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For spontaneous reaction, \(\Delta_{r} G\) must be less than zero. So, \(\Delta_{r} G=\Delta_{r} H-T \Delta_{r} S<0\)
