Chapter 17, Problem 85E

Consider the relationship

$\text{In}\left(K\right)=\frac{-\Delta H^{\circ }}{RT}+\frac{\Delta S^{\circ }}{R}$

The equilibrium constant for some hypothetical process was determined as a function of temperature (Kelvin) with the results plotted below.

From the plot, determine the values of ∆H° and ∆S° for this process. What would be the major difference in the In (K) versus 1/T plot for an endothermic process as compared to an exothermic process?
