- The combustion of ethylene (C2H4) is both spontaneous (∆G° = –1314.1 kJ/mol) and highly exothermic (∆H° = –1323.0 kJ/mol) in the standard state at 25°C.
(a) Use the data in the problem statement to determine the value of ∆S° for the combustion of ethylene at 25°C.
(b) Above what temperature will this reaction become non-spontaneous (that is, at what temperature will ∆G° = 0)? (Hint: The correct answer here is almost absurdly large, so don’t let that freak you out.)
