Match the following processes with entropy change:
| Reaction | Entropy change |
| (i) A liquid vapourises | (a) |
| (ii)Reaction is non-spontaneous at all temperatures and |
(b) |
| (iii) Reversible expansion of an ideal gas |
(i) - b
(ii) - c
(iii) -a
Explanation:
|
Reaction |
Entropy change |
|
(i) A liquid vaporises |
As a liquid change to gaseous state, the movement of molecules will increase and hence the entropy will also increase. |
|
ii) Reaction is non-spontaneous at all temperatures and AH is positive. |
ΔG is positive as the process in non-spontaneous. Also, ΔH is positive. Hence, ΔS is negative. |
|
(iii) Reversible expansion of an ideal gas |
This process at every stage is always in equilibrium |
