Which one of the following has S^ greater than zero?
Options
- ACaO (s)+ CO ₂(g) CaCO ₃(s)
- BNaCl _ (a q) NaCl _ (s)
- CNaNO _ 3(s) Na _ (a q) ⁺+ NO ₃⁻ _ (a q)
- DN _ 2(g) +3 H _ 2( ~g ) 2 NH _ 3(g)
Correct answer
C. NaNO _ 3(s) Na _ (a q) ⁺+ NO ₃⁻ _ (a q)
Step-by-step solution
Here, the number of product species is greater than the number of reactant species. So it leads to positive value of entropy.
