Gibbs Helmholtz equation relates the enthalpy, entropy and free energy change of the process at constant pressure and temperature as `DeltaG=DeltaH-TDeltaS " (at constant P, T)"` In General the magnitude of `DeltaH` does not change much with the change in temperature but the terms `TDeltaS` changes appreciably. Hence in some process spontaneity is very much dependent on temperature and such processes are generally known as entropy driven process. The Dissolution of `CaCl_(2).6H_(2)O` in a large volume of water is endothermic to the extent of 3.5 kcal `"mol"^(-1)` and `DeltaH` for the reaction is -23.2 kcal `"mol"^(-1)`. `CaCl_(2)(s)+6H_(2)O(l)rarrCaCl_(2).6H_(2)O(s)` Select the correct statement :A. `DeltaH_("solution")` for anhydrous `CaCl_(2)` is - 19.7 kcal/mol and the process is enthalpy drivenB. `DeltaH_("solution")` for anhydrous `CaCl_(2)` is - 19.7 kcal/mol and the process is entropy drivenC. Dissolution of `CaCl_(2).6H_(2)O` in water is enthalpy driven processD. The `Delta_(r )S` the reaction `CaCl_(2)(s)+6H_(2)O(l)rarrCaCl_(2).6H_(2)O(s)` is negative |
