Sample AP Chemistry practice question

A researcher plots the standard Gibbs free energy change (ΔG°) on the y-axis versus temperature (T) on the x-axis for a chemical reaction. The resulting line has a negative slope and a positive y-intercept. Based on the linear relationship ΔG° = ΔH° − TΔS°, which statement correctly identifies the signs of the enthalpy and entropy changes indicated by the graph?

The enthalpy change is positive and the entropy change is positive.

Correct answer

The enthalpy change is positive and the entropy change is negative.

The enthalpy change is negative and the entropy change is positive.

The enthalpy change is negative and the entropy change is negative.

Explanation

Connecting the linear equation y = mx + b to the thermodynamic function shows that the y-intercept corresponds to ΔH° and the slope corresponds to −ΔS°. A positive intercept indicates ΔH° > 0, and a negative slope indicates −ΔS° < 0, meaning ΔS° must be positive.
