Question: Consider the reaction 2 PbO ( s ) + N 2 ( g ) - > 2 Pb ( s ) + 2 NO (

Consider the reaction 2 PbO(s)+ N2(g)->2 Pb(s)+2 NO(g)
a) Predict the sign of \Delta S\deg for this reaction and explain your reasoning.
b) Calculate \Delta S\deg from standard molar entropy values given. Was your prediction correct?
c)\Delta H\deg for this reaction is +615.3 kJ at 298 K. Use this value and the value of \Delta S\deg you found above to determine \Delta G\deg and state whether the reaction is spontaneous at this temperature. Substance So at 298 K (J/K)
PbO(s)70
N2(g)150
Pb(s)72
NO(g)215
