In which of the following process, a maximum increase in entropy is observed?
Answer»
Melting of ice Sublimation of naphthalene Condensation of water Dissolution of SALT in water
Solution :Sublimation of naphthalene `RIGHTARROW` As sublimation INVOLVES the conversion of solid into gaseous state directly.Therefore there is a larger/maximum increase in entropy as the HIGHLY ordered solid goes to highly (most) disordered gaseous state.Therefore `DeltaS ` = maximu for the sublimation of naphthalene.
