Spontanous process -

\Delta G= \Delta H-\Delta T

 

- wherein

For spontanouse process \Delta G must be negative.

 

 given reaction is

\frac{1}{2}X^{2}+\frac{3}{2}Y^{2}\rightleftharpoons XY_{3}

We Know \Delta S^{0} =\sum S^{0} -\sum S^{0}rectant

 

= 50-\left ( 30+60 \right ) =-40 JK^{-1}mol^{-1}

at  equilibrium \Delta G^{0}=0

                       \Delta H^{0}=T\Delta S^{0}

\Rightarrow T= \frac{\Delta H^{0}}{\Delta S^{0}}=\frac{-30\times 10^{3}jmo^{-1}}{-40jk^{-1}mol^{-1}}

= 750 \:k
