    Entropy of vaporisation of water at \[{{100}^{o}}C\], if molar heat of vaporisation is 9710 cal \[mo{{l}^{-1}}\], will be:

    A)  20 cal \[mo{{l}^{-1}}{{K}^{-1}}\]

    B)  26 cal \[mo{{l}^{-1}}{{K}^{-1}}\]

    C)  24 cal \[mo{{l}^{-1}}{{K}^{-1}}\]

    D)  28 cal \[mo{{l}^{-1}}{{K}^{-1}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Use the following formula to solve the problem \[\Delta S=\frac{\Delta H}{T}\] where \[\Delta S=\] entropy = ? \[\Delta H=\] enthalpy \[=9710\,cal\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\] T = temperature \[={{100}^{o}}C=100+273=373\,K\] \[\therefore \] \[\Delta S=\frac{9710}{373}\] \[=26.032\,cal\,mo{{l}^{-1}}{{K}^{-1}}\] \[\approx 26\,cal\,mo{{l}^{-1}}{{K}^{-1}}\]
