Textbook Problem 4J.17
Assume that Δ H ° and Δ S ° are independent of temperature and use data in Appendix 2A to calculate Δ G ° for each of the following reactions at 80. ° C . Over what temperature range will each reaction be spontaneous under standard conditions? (a) B 2 O 3 (s ) + 6 HF (g ) → 2 BF 3 (g ) + 3 H 2 O (l ) (b) CaC 2 (s ) + 2 HCl (aq ) → CaCl 2 (aq ) + C 2 H 2 (g ) (c) C ( s , graphite ) → C ( s , diamond )
I thought in order to solve this problem, I would have to first use the appendix formation values to calculate the
S and
H of the equation, and then use the equation
is equal to the
- T times
. However, the answer I'm getting is not right. Could someone provide a little guidance on where I could be going wrong?

a.
deltaH=2deltaH(BF3,g)+3deltaH(H2O,l)-(deltaH(B2O3)+6deltaH(HF,g))
=2(-1137kJ/mol)+3(-285.83kJ/mol)-((-1272.8kJ/mol)+6(-271.1kJ/mol))
=-232.1kJ/mol
deltaS=2Sm(BF3,g)+3Sm(H2O,l)-(Sm(B2O3,s)+6Sm(HF,g)
=2(254.12J/K.mol)+3(69.91J/K.mol)-(53.97J/K.mol+6(173.78J/K.mol))
=-378.68J/K.mol
deltaG=-232.1J/K.mol-(353K)(-378.68J/K.mol)/(1000J/kJ)
=-98.42kJ/mol
deltaH=2deltaH(BF3,g)+3deltaH(H2O,l)-(deltaH(B2O3)+6deltaH(HF,g))

Can someone also explain how you are able to decide at what temperature the reactions are spontaneous? Especially how to understand this when it is spontaneous at all temperatures.
