Identify whether the following pair have a larger entropy or not. If yes then Why? O2{g) at 1 atm or O2(g) at 10 atm both at the same temperature.

O2(g) at 1 atm will occupy more volume than O2(g) at 10 atm at the same temperature. Hence, at 1 atm O2(g) will have higher disorder and hence higher entropy.

Question

Identify whether the following pair have a larger entropy or not. If yes then Why?

O₂{g) at 1 atm or O₂(g) at 10 atm both at the same temperature.

Short Note

Solution

O₂(g) at 1 atm will occupy more volume than O₂(g) at 10 atm at the same temperature. Hence, at 1 atm O₂(g) will have higher disorder and hence higher entropy.
