Which of the following processes has a negative AS? a. Evaporating 1 mole of a liquid. b. Raising the temperature of 1 Liter of water from 295 K to 350 K. c. Freezing of 1 mole of a liquid. d. None of the above. -. At a constant pressure, the following reaction is exothermic: 2 NO2(g) → N2O4 (g). Which of the following statements is true about the reaction (as written)? a. The reaction is always spontaneous. b. The reaction is spontaneous at low temperatures, but not at high temperatures. c. The eaction is spontaneous at high temperatures, but not at low temperatures. d. The reaction is never spontaneous.
Thermochemistry
Thermochemistry can be considered as a branch of thermodynamics that deals with the connections between warmth, work, and various types of energy, formed because of different synthetic and actual cycles. Thermochemistry describes the energy changes that occur as a result of reactions or chemical changes in a substance.
Exergonic Reaction
The term exergonic is derived from the Greek word in which ‘ergon’ means work and exergonic means ‘work outside’. Exergonic reactions releases work energy. Exergonic reactions are different from exothermic reactions, the one that releases only heat energy during the course of the reaction. So, exothermic reaction is one type of exergonic reaction. Exergonic reaction releases work energy in different forms like heat, light or sound. For example, a glow stick releases light making that an exergonic reaction and not an exothermic reaction since no heat is released. Even endothermic reactions at very high temperature are exergonic.
