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
