Unformatted text preview: S ο , of phenol, C 6 H 5 OH(s) at 298 K is −385 J K −1 mol −1 . Calculate the standard free energy change of formation, ∆ G ο , of phenol at 298 K.-6272 kJ/mol (3) (d) Determine whether the reaction is spontaneous at 298 K, and give a reason. No; Since the temperature does not change, it is not spontaneous. (2) (e) Predict the effect, if any, of an increase in temperature on the spontaneity of this reaction. An increase in temperature will make the reaction spontaneously occur. (2) (Total 11 marks) MNHS – IB HL Chemsitry 1...
