All of the statements concerning free energy and spontaneity are true except
 
  A) if the value of G for a reaction is 55.2 kcal, the value of G for the reverse reaction will be -55.2 kcal.
  B) if the value of G for a reaction is negative, the reaction is said to be spontaneous.
  C) a reaction which is nonspontaneous at low temperature cannot be spontaneous at higher temperatures.
  D) enthalpy and entropy are of equal importance in determining the spontaneity of a reaction.
  E) the speed of a reaction is not influenced by its spontaneity.

Question 2

Consider the endothermic reaction: N2 (g) + 2 H2 (g)  N2H4 (l) The entropy change of this reaction is ________ and the enthalpy change is ________, so at a very high temperature, this reaction is probably ________.
 
  A) favorable; unfavorable; nonspontaneous
  B) favorable; unfavorable; spontaneous
  C) unfavorable; unfavorable; spontaneous
  D) unfavorable; unfavorable; nonspontaneous
  E) unfavorable; favorable; spontaneous

Question 3

2 Al2O3 (s)  4 Al (s) + 3 O2 (g) G = +138 kcal

  A) spontaneous; increases
  B) spontaneous; decreases
  C) non-spontaneous; increases
  D) non-spontaneous; decreases
  E) non-spontaneous; does not change

  A) the value of G is less than zero.
  B) the value of G is unaffected by a catalyst.
  C) they are said to be exergonic.
  D) if the enthalpy change is unfavorable, they occur at a high temperature.
  E) the reaction rate is determined by the value of G.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
