What are the enthalpy, entropy, and free energy for the hydrogenation of ethene (C2H4) to ethane (C2H6) at 25 degrees. Is this a spontaneous process and how can you tell?

  1. What do you need help with on this. I'm sure it isn't all of the problem.
    Write the equation and balance it.
    dHrxn = (n*dHf products)-(n*dHf reactants)
    dSrxn = (n*dSo products)-(n*dSo reactants)
    dGrxn = dHrxn -TdSrxn
    Spontaneity is when dG is negative.
