What is entropy?
Entropy (S) is a measure of the disorder or randomness in a system.
True or false: Higher entropy means lower disorder.
False, because higher entropy indicates greater disorder.
Unit of entropy?
The SI unit of entropy is joules per kelvin (J/K).
Difference between entropy and enthalpy.
Entropy measures disorder; enthalpy measures heat content in a system.
What increases entropy?
Increased temperature, phase changes to gas, and mixing of substances increase entropy.
What is the second law of thermodynamics?
The total entropy of an isolated system can never decrease over time.
Calculate change in entropy: ΔS = ?
ΔS = S_final - S_initial indicates the change in entropy.
True or false: Entropy is always positive.
False, because entropy can decrease in a localized system.
Which process decreases entropy?
Freezing a liquid into a solid decreases entropy.
Fill in the blank: S = k ln W relates _______ and _______.
S = k ln W relates entropy (S) with the number of microstates (W).
What is Gibbs free energy equation?
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS combines enthalpy, temperature, and entropy.
Effect of temperature on entropy?
Increasing temperature usually increases the entropy of a system.
True or false: Entropy increases in exothermic reactions.
False, because exothermic reactions can result in decreased entropy.
Which phase has the highest entropy?
Gaseous phase has the highest entropy due to increased particle movement.
What is standard molar entropy (S°)?
Standard molar entropy is the absolute entropy of 1 mole of a substance at standard conditions.
Difference between entropy and free energy.
Entropy measures disorder; free energy measures the work obtainable from a system.
Fill in the blank: Entropy tends to _______ in spontaneous processes.
Entropy tends to increase in spontaneous processes.
Which scenario is most likely to have high entropy?
A mixture of gases has higher entropy than separated gases.
What does a negative ΔG indicate?
A negative ΔG indicates a spontaneous process.
True or false: All reactions increase entropy.
False, as some reactions can decrease entropy.
Comparison of entropy in solids vs. gases.
Solids have low entropy; gases have high entropy due to more microstates.
