Explanation:
Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa
a)
In this reaction 2 moles of gaseous reactants are converting to 1 mole of gaseous products. The randomness will decrease and hence entropy will also decrease. Thus is negative.
b)
In this reaction solid reactants are converting to aqueous products. The randomness will increase and hence entropy will also increase. Thus is positive.
c)
In this reaction aqueous reactants are converting to solid products. The randomness will decrease and hence entropy will also decrease. Thus is negative
