Interpretation: The entropy changes in the given set of reactions have to be predicted to be positive or negative with explanation.
Concept Introduction: Entropy is a thermodynamic quantity, which is the measure of randomness in a system. The term entropy is useful in explaining the spontaneity of a process. For all spontaneous process in an isolated system there will be an increase in entropy. Entropy is represented by the letter ‘S’. It is a state function. The change in entropy gives information about the magnitude and direction of a process. During a phase transition, if the solid state is changed to liquid state or gaseous state there will be an in increase in entropy in the system. The solid state is having more orderly arrangement than the liquid and gaseous state. Gaseous state having more possible arrangements of atoms will have the highest order of entropy.
