Q

Comparing entropies

Compared to a pure substance, in which all particles are identical, the entropy of a mixture of two or more different particle types is greater. This is because of the additional orientations and interactions that are possible in a system comprised of nonidentical components

Q

Comparing entropies.

When a solid dissolve in a liquid such as sodium chloride in water, the particles of the solid experience both a greater freedom of motion and additional interactions with the solvent particles. This corresponds to a more uniform dispersal of matter and energy. The process of dissolution therefore involves an increase in entropy.

A

Q

Comparing entropies.

The side of the equation with more moles of gas has a higher total entropy. This is because a greater number of moles indicates a greater number of gas particles and a greater number of arrangements of the gas particles.
