Question

In which of the following, entropy of the system decreases?

Options

  • Crystallization of liquid into solid.

  • Temperature of crystalline solid is increased from 0 K to 115 K

  • H2(g) → 2H(g) 

  • 2 NaHCO3(s)  → Na2CO3(s) + CO2(g) + H2O(g)

MCQ

Solution

Crystallization of liquid into solid

Explanation:

  • A system's disorder or difficulty is measured by its entropy.
  • A liquid turns into a solid—a more ordered state—during the crystallisation process.
  • Because the particles become more organised and have less mobility, entropy consequently falls.
