Question

Calculate the change in entropy if Br2(l) is converted to Br2(g).

Answer 1

Ans: The entropy change for the given reaction is 93.3 J/K

Given reaction:

Br2(l) → Br2(g)

ΔS = ∑n(products)S⁰(products) - ∑n(reactants)S⁰(reactants)

     = 1 mole* S°(Br2(g)) - 1 mole*S°(Br2(l))

     =  1 mole *245.5 J/mol-K - 1 mole*152.2 J/mol-K

     = 93.3 J/K
