For the reaction $CaCO_3(s) \rightarrow CaO(s) + CO_2(g)$ at $298 \ K$ and $1 \ atm$ pressure,the values of $\Delta H^o$ and $\Delta S^o$ are $+179.1 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ and $+160.2 \ J \ K^{-1} \ mol^{-1}$ respectively. Assuming that $\Delta H^o$ and $\Delta S^o$ do not change with temperature,at what temperature (in $K$) will the process become spontaneous?

  • A
    $1008$
  • B
    $1200$
  • C
    $845$
  • D
    $1118$
