JEE Main & Advanced Chemistry Thermodynamics / रासायनिक उष्मागतिकी Question Bank 2nd and 3rd law of thermodynamics and Entropy

  • question_answer
    For which of the processes is \[\Delta S\] negative           [Pb. PMT 1998]

    A)                 \[{{H}_{2}}(g)\to 2H(g)\]

    B)                 \[{{N}_{2}}(g)\,1atm\to {{N}_{2}}(g)\,8\,atm\]

    C)                 \[2S{{O}_{3}}(g)\to 2S{{O}_{2}}(g)+{{O}_{2}}(g)\]

    D)                 \[{{C}_{(diamond)}}\to {{C}_{(graphite)}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

              Processes A and C take place with the increase of no. of moles of gaseous species and hence the disorder or entropy increases. B on increasing pressure, disorder or randomness decreases and so also the entropy D is endothermic process and \[\Delta S\]is positive.
