Q. Match the following processes with entropy change:
Reaction Entropy change
(i) A liquid vapourises (a) $\Delta\,S=0$
(ii) Reaction is non-spontaneouat all temperatures and $\Delta\,H$ is positives (b) $\Delta\,S$ = positive
(ii)i Reversible expansion of an igasdeal (c) $\Delta\,S$ = negative

Thermodynamics

Solution:

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. $\Delta G$ is positive as the process in non-spontaneous. Also, $\Delta H$ is positive. Hence, $\Delta S$ is negative
iii Reversible expansion of an ideal gas This process at every stage is always in equal
