DSSUR (give units) DSTOT (give units) (B) Does the spontaneity of this reaction change with temperature? Please explain. If there is a crossover temperature, calculate it.
1.) Here is the reaction of carbon monoxide and hydrogen to form gaseous methanol at 298 K.
This reaction is spontaneous at 298 K under standard conditions.
