Chapter 5, Problem 38P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

From the given reaction, the reaction which has larger ΔS0 value has to be identified.

Concept introduction:

 Entropy: it is a measure of the freedom of motion in a system.  Restricting the freedom of motion of a molecule depresses its entropy.

 ΔS0=Freedomofmotionoftheproducts-Freedomofmotionofthereactants

 ΔS0 Value of reaction will be positive only if the products possess greater freedom of motion than the reactant.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

It has to be checked that the reactions which have whether positive or negative ΔS0 value.

Concept introduction:

 Entropy: it is a measure of the freedom of motion in a system.  Restricting the freedom of motion of a molecule depresses its entropy.

ΔS0=Freedomofmotionoftheproducts-Freedomofmotionofthereactants

ΔS0 value of reaction will be positive only if the products possess greater freedom of motion than the reactant.
