A certain metal M forms a soluble sulfate salt M2SO4. Suppose the left half cell of a galvanic cell apparatus is filled with a 50.0mM solution of M2SO4 and the right half cell with a 5.00M solution of the same substance. Electrodes made of M are dipped into both solutions and a voltmeter is connected between them. The temperature of the apparatus is held constant at 20.0°C.

Which electrode will be positive?

Left

Right

a). in this case, dh> 0 and sd> 0. if t becomes larger, the term "-tds" will become more negative. at some point, it is possible that -dts will be more negative than the dh is positive, and the reaction will become spontaneous. this is probably the correct answer, but you should look at all of the other possibilities and make sure of that.
