    The standard reaction Gibbs energy for a chemical reaction at an absolute temperature T is given by \[{{\Delta }_{r}}{{G}^{o}}=A-BT,\]where A and B are non-zero constants. Which of the following is true about this reaction? [JEE  Main Online Paper (Held on 11-jan-2019 Evening)]

    A) Exothermic if \[A>0\]and \[B<0\]

    B) Endothermic if \[A<0\] and \[B>0\]

    C) Endothermic if \[A>0\]

    D) Exothermic if \[B<0\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[\Delta {{G}^{o}}=\Delta {{H}^{o}}-T\Delta {{S}^{o}}\] Given that A and B are non-zero constants, i.e., \[A=\Delta {{H}^{o}},B=\Delta {{S}^{o}}\]if \[\Delta {{H}^{o}}\]is positive means reaction is endothermic.
