    The reaction will be spontaneous if Gibb free energy is negative, according the following relation:

    G = H - T*S

    where G is Gibbs free energy, T is change of enthalpy, T is temperature and S is change of entropy

    In the case of ammonia:

    G = - 93000 - 356 * (-198) = - 93000 + 70488 = - 22512 j/mol

    As G < 0 then the reaction is spontaneous.
