    If the enthalpy change for the transition of liquid water to steam is 30 kJ mol-1 at 27°C, the entropy change for the process would be

    A) \[\text{1}\text{.0J}\,\text{mo}{{\text{l}}^{\text{-1}}}\,{{\text{K}}^{\text{-1}}}\]              

    B) \[\text{0}\text{.1}\,\text{J}\,\text{mo}{{\text{l}}^{\text{-1}}}\,{{\text{K}}^{\text{-1}}}\]

    C) \[100\,\text{J}\,\text{mo}{{\text{l}}^{\text{-1}}}\,{{\text{K}}^{\text{-1}}}\]

    D)        \[10\,\text{J}\,\text{mo}{{\text{l}}^{\text{-1}}}\,{{\text{K}}^{\text{-1}}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[\Delta {{G}^{o}}=\Delta {{H}^{o}}-T\Delta {{S}^{o}}\] Given, \[\Delta {{H}_{vap.}}=30\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\] \[\Delta {{G}^{o}}=0\]at equilibrium, \[\Delta {{S}_{vap}}=\frac{\Delta {{H}_{vap}}}{T}\] \[=\frac{30\times {{10}^{3}}\,J\,mo{{l}^{-1}}}{300\,K}\] \[=100\,\,J\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\,{{K}^{-1}}\]
