Question
Li3N(s) + 2 H2(g) <-> LiNH2(s) + 2 LiH(s) dH° = -192 kJ/mol_rxn
Because pure H2 is a hazardous substance, safer and more cost effective techniques to store it as a solid for shipping purposes have been developed. One such method is the reaction represented above, which occurs at 200°C.
Which of the following is the most likely reason that the reaction occurs at a significant rate only if the temperature of the reaction mixture is greater than 200°C?
A.
The reaction is exothermic.
B.
dS° for the reaction is negative.
C.✓ Correct
The reaction has a high activation energy.
D.
dG° < 0 when T < 200°C.
