_A___ 12. Which one of the following statements is not correct?
a. When H for a reaction is negative, the reaction is never spontaneous.
b. When G for a reaction is negative, the reaction is spontaneous.
c. When G for a reaction is positive, the reaction is nonspontaneous.
d. When G for a reaction is zero, the system is at equilibrium.

Answer: Most reactions exothermic, and as a result, the change in entropy is positive. A negative
change in enthalpy and positive change in entropy will result in a negative free energy and a
spontaneous reaction.

_E___ 13. Which statement concerning sign conventions for E = q + w is false?
a. For heat absorbed by the system, q is positive.
b. For an expansion, w is negative.
c. When energy is released by the reacting system, E is negative.
d. For work done by the system, w is negative.
e. If E is positive, energy can be written as a product in the equation for the reaction.

Answer: If the change in internal energy of a system is positive, then the system gained energy and
or had work done on it by the surroundings. In terms of a chemical reaction, this means the
reactants added heat or had work done on it (such as gases going to liquids) during the reaction
process.
