CO2 gas

19.13: T or f: (d) An isothermal process is one in which the system loses no heat.

true

19.21 T of F: (a) ΔS is a state function.

true

19.45 In each of the following pairs, which compound would you expect to have the higher standard molar entropy: (a) C2H21g2 or C2H61g2 (b) CO21g2 or CO1g2?

(a) C2H61g2 (b) CO2(g)

19.13: T or f: (a) A reaction that is spontaneous in one direction will be nonspontaneous in the reverse direction under the same reaction conditions.

(a) True, assuming that the forward and reverse processes occur at the same conditions.

53 A. For a process that occurs at constant temperature, does the change in Gibbs free energy depend on changes in the enthalpy and entropy of the system?

(a) Yes. ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

53 c. (c) If ΔG for a process is large, is the rate at which it occurs fast?

(c) No. There is no relationship between ΔG and rate of reaction.

All but e are spontaneous

19.39 For each of the following pairs, predict which substance has the higher entropy per mole at a given temperature: (a) Ar1l2 or Ar1g2, (

Argon gas

19.39 For each of the following pairs, predict which substance has the higher entropy per mole at a given temperature: b) He1g2 at 3 atm pressure or He1g2 at 1.5 atm pressure,

19.35 Does the entropy of the system increase, decrease, or stay the same when (a) a solid melts, (b) a gas liquefies, (c) a solid sublimes?

S increases in (a) and (c); S decreases in

t or f:

The entropy of the universe increases for any spontaneous process.

what is the entropy of a pure, perfect crystalline substance at 0?

Zero

entropy

a measure of the tendency for energy to spread or disperse, thereby reducing its ability to accomplish work

53 b. For a certain process that occurs at constant T and P, the value of ΔG is positive. Is the process spontaneous?

b) No. If ΔG is positive, the process is nonspontaneous.

In any spontaneous process carried out at constant temperature and pressure, the free energy always what?

decreases

spontaneous processes that result in a decrease in the systems entropy are always what?

exothermic

19.13: T or f: (c) Most spontaneous processes are reversible.

false

19.13: T or f: b) All spontaneous processes are fast.

false

19.13: T or f:(e) The maximum amount of work can be accomplished by an irreversible process rather than a reversible one.

false

19.21 T of F:(b) If a system undergoes a reversible change, the entropy of the universe increases. (

false

19.21 T of F:(d) If a system undergoes a reversible process, the entropy change of the system must be zero.

false

19.25 T or F: The second law of thermodynamics says that entropy is conserved. (

false

19.25 T or F:(c) In a certain spontaneous process the system undergoes an entropy change of 4.2 J>K; therefore, the entropy change of the surroundings must be -4.2 J>K.

false

spontaneous process

is one that occurs on its own without any outside assistance.

common feature of spontaneous rxns

loss of potential energy

what type of rxns are MAJORITY of spontaneous

mostly exothermic

the reverse of a spontaneous rxn is always what?

non spontaneous

what does the change in entropy depend on

only on the initial and final states of the system and not on the path taken from one state to the other:

19.27 a. (a) What sign for ΔS do you expect when the volume of 0.200 mol of an ideal gas at 27 °C is increased isothermally from an initial volume of 10.0 L?

positive

what is S univ for a spontaneous rxn

positive (>0)

what must be not confuse spontaneity with?

speed, it doesn't mean that it occurs @ an observable rate

19.21 T of F:(c) If a system undergoes a reversible process, the change in entropy of the system is exactly matched by an equal and opposite change in the entropy of the surroundings.

true

19.25 T or F:(b) If the entropy of the system increases during a reversible process, the entropy change of the surroundings must decrease by the same amount.

true

t or f: Processes that are spontaneous in one direction are nonspontaneous in the opposite direction.

true
