NaCl dissociation not spontaneous?
You might be confusing $\ce{\Delta G}$ and $\ce{\Delta H}$.

$$\ce{\Delta G = \Delta H - T \Delta S}$$

$\ce{\Delta G}$, free energy, measures the "usefulness" of a system. If $\ce{\Delta G \gt 0}$, then the reaction is not thermodynamically favored - it's NOT SPONTANEOUS.

$\ce{\Delta H}$ being positive means that the reaction is endothermic, or makes the surroundings cooler. While this would CONTRIBUTE to a positive value of $\ce{\Delta G}$, it DOES NOT GUARANTEE it.

In the case of your example above, I would assume the $\ce{T \Delta S}$ factor would make $\ce{\Delta G \lt 0}$ if that reaction really is SPONTANEOUS (I don't have an entropy table with me).
