Consider the combustion reaction for calcium: 2 Ca (s) + O 2 (g) 2 CaO (s)

Question:

Consider the combustion reaction for calcium:

2 Ca (s) + O2 (g) → 2 CaO (s) 

ΔH = -1270 kJ, ΔS = -365 J/K

a) Calculate ΔG at 25 °C and determine whether the reaction is spontaneous.

b) Determine at what temperature (if any) the reaction is spontaneous.
