As isolated box, equally partitioned contains two ideal gases A and B as shown When the partition is removed, the gases mix. The changes in enthalpy ( H ) and entropy ( S ) in the process, respectively, are
Options
- Azero, positive
- Bzero, negative
- Cpositive, zero
- Dnegative, zero
Correct answer
A. zero, positive
Step-by-step solution
According to KTG Force of attraction and repulsion amongst molecules of ideal gas are negligible So, H =0 and randomness increases due to increase in volume so S =+ ve .
