**Question 10 of 20**

**What is S° for B in the reaction 5 A → 4 B if ΔS°(rxn) = -218.6 J/mol·K? [S°(A) = 220.0 J/mol·K]**

To solve this problem, we need to determine the standard molar entropy (S°) for substance B in the reaction using the given entropy change for the reaction and the entropy of substance A.

**Calculation:**

Given:
- Reaction: 5 A → 4 B
- ΔS°(rxn) = -218.6 J/mol·K
- S°(A) = 220.0 J/mol·K

Use the formula for the entropy change of the reaction:
\[
\Delta S^\circ (\text{rxn}) = \sum \left( n \cdot S^\circ \right)_{\text{products}} - \sum \left( n \cdot S^\circ \right)_{\text{reactants}}
\]

Substitute the known values:
\[
-218.6 = 4 \cdot S^\circ (B) - 5 \cdot 220.0
\]

Solve for \( S^\circ (B) \).

**User Interface:**

The interface includes a numeric keypad with options to input numerical values and perform calculations. Functions include basic numeric input (0-9), decimal point, and exponential notation (x10^). There are also backspace and clear (C) buttons for editing inputs.
