|
Answer» (ii) `Delta_(r)G^(@)= - RT ln K `. If K is `+ve`, `Delta_(r)G^(@) = -ve` ad reaction is spontaneous . Hence, (ii) `rarr`(b). (iii) Crystalline solid state has lowest entropy. Hence , (iii) `rarr` (c ) (iv) During adiabaticexpansion of an ideal gas , `q=0`. Hence, `DeltaU = q+W` GIVES`DeltaU = w ,` i.e., work done is at the cost of internal energy which decreases . Hence, `(iv) rarr (a)`. |

|
Answer» (II) `Delta_(r)G^(@) = + ve` at highT means the reaction is non-spontaneous at high temperature, i.e., (ii) `rarr` (a) . (iii) `Delta_(r) H^(@) = -ve` means it favours ,`Delta_(r)S^(@)= + ve`means it ALSO favours. `Delta_(r)G^(@)= -ve` means reaction is spontaneous at all temperatures, i.e, (iii) `rarr`(a). |

In the followingquestions morethan one correlation is possible betweenoptions of both columns. Match the following : {:(,"Reaction",,"Entropy change"),((i) ,"A liquid vaporises",(a),DeltaS=0),((ii),"Reaction is non-spontaneous at all temperatures and " DeltaH " is positive",(b),DeltaS="positive"),((iii),"Reversible expansion of an ideal gas ",(c ) , DeltaS = "negative"):} |
|
Answer» (ii) When `DeltaH = +ve. i.e.,` energy factor oppose . The process is non-spontaneous at all TEMPERATURE if entropy factor also opposes the process, i.e., `DeltaS = - ve` . Hence,`(ii) rarr (c )` (iii) In the REVERSIBLE expansion of an ideal gas, the SYSTEM REMAINS in equilibrium at EVERY stage. Hence, `DeltaS =0, i.e., (iii) rarr (a)`. |
