Define entropy (S) and give the standard unit
The number of possible arrangements of the particles and their energy in a
given system. J/Kmol
ΔS⦵=
ΣS⦵(products) – ΣS⦵(reactants)
ΔG⦵=
ΔH⦵ – TΔS⦵
Reaction is feasible when ΔG⦵ is…
Negative
State the 1st, 2nd and third laws of thermodynamics
1st- Law of conservation of energy.
2nd- Entropy of the universe is always increasing.
3rd- All molecular movement stops at absolute zero (0K or -273 C) and a perfect crystal has no entropy.
Feasibility depends on…
