The entropy values (in JK ⁻¹ ~mol ⁻¹ ) of H ₂( ~g )=130.6, Cl ₂( ~g )=223.0 and HCl ( g )=186.7 at 298 K and 1 atm pressure. Then entropy change for the reaction : H ₂( ~g )+ Cl ₂( ~g ) 2 HCl ( g ) is :
Options
- A+540.3
- B+727.3
- C-166.9
- D+19.8
Correct answer
D. +19.8
Step-by-step solution
aligned S^ & =2 S^ _ HCl - (S_ H ₂ ^ +S^ _ Cl ₂ ) & =2 186.7-(130.6+223.0) & =19.8 JK ⁻¹ ~mol ⁻¹ aligned
