Explanation:
6.22 Calculate the entropy change in surroundings when 1.00 mol of H_2 O (l) ... what are the signs of \ Delta H \: \: and \: \: \Delta S ... For the reaction at 298 K, 2 A plus B gives C delta H equals 400 ...
Given - ∆S total - -40kJ/mol K
∆H system - 2000 Kj/mol
temperature - 400K
Find - ∆S system
Answer -
Entropy of a system is defined as the randomness of constitutive molecules.
To find the entropy of a system, following formula will be used -
∆S total = ∆S system + ∆S surroundings
∆S surroundings in turn can be calculated with the help of formula mentioned-
∆S surroundings = -∆H/T
Keeping the values in formula-
∆S surroundings = -2000/400
∆S surroundings = -5 kJ/mol K
Now, ∆S system = ∆S total - ∆S surroundings
∆S system = -40 -(-5)
∆S system = -35 kj/mol K
