Answer:
Option A. 1191.49 K
Explanation:
Data obtained from the question include:
The equation for the reaction is given below:
4HCl + O2 —> 2Cl2 + 2H2O
Enthalpy (H) = +280 KJ/mol = +280000 J/mol
Entropy (S) = +235 J/Kmol
Temperature (T) =..?
The temperature at which the reaction will be feasible can be obtained as follow:
Change in entropy (ΔS) = change in enthalphy (ΔH)/T
(ΔS) = (ΔH)/T
235 = 280000/T
Cross multiply
235 x T = 280000
Divide both side by 235
T = 280000/235
T = 1191.49 K
Therefore, the temperature at which the reaction will be feasible is 1191.49 K
