Under the standard state and 260 °C, the solid of ammonia hydroxide NH4OH (s) decomposes explosively on its
own into nitrous oxide gas N20 (g) and water gas H20 (g).
NH4OH (s) > NH3 (g) + H20 (g)
However, NH4OH (s) is stable under the standard state and 25 °C and does not decompose.
Based on the above information, which of the following does have the correct signs for the AG°rxn, AH°,
rxn
and
AS°rxn regarding the above reaction at the standard state and 260 °C.
a. AH°rxn> 0; AS°,
< 0; AG°rxn <0
rxn
O b. AH°rxn <0; AS°rxn < 0; AG°rxn <0
C. AH°TXN < 0; AS°rxn > 0; AG°rxn > 0
O d. AH°rxn> 0; AS°rxn> 0; AG°rxn >0
O e. AH°rxn > 0; AS°rxn> 0; AG°rxn <0
Of. AH°rxn < 0; AS°rxn > 0; AG°rxn <0
