Alberto Dickson · Answer 1

Once criterion of knowing whether the reaction is spontaneous or not, is by looking at the sign of delta G. If it's negative, the process is spontaneous, and vv. The formula for delta G is

G = H - TS

G = 147 kJ - (-67/1000 kJ) * (149 + 273 K)

G = 175 kJ

Thus, the process is non-spontaneous.
