Consider the reaction of carbon monoxide with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide.
2 CO( g ) + O₂( g ) → 2 CO₂( g )
At what temperature will this reaction be spontaneous according to Gibb's Energy?
Δ H in kJ/mol for: CO( g ) = − 110.5, CO₂( g ) = − 393.5
Δ S in J/mol K for: CO( g ) = 197.6, CO₂( g ) = 213.6, O₂( g ) = 205.0
