Question

The ΔH of the following reaction is 228 kcal/mol (953 kJ/mol). 2 Cs(g) + Br_{2}(l) → 2 CsBr(s)Does the entropy of the reaction decrease or increase? Why?

Accepted Answer

The entropy of the reaction decreases because two atoms of gas react with one molecule of liquid to produce two molecules of solid.

Answer

The entropy of the reaction increases because two atoms of gas react with one molecule of liquid to produce two molecules of solid.

Answer

The entropy of the reaction increases because two molecules of solid produce two atoms of gas and one molecule of liquid.

Answer

The entropy of the reaction decreases because two molecules of solid produce two atoms of gas and one molecule of liquid.

The ΔH of the following reaction is 228 kcal/mol (953 kJ/mol). 2 Cs(g) + Br2(l) → 2 CsBr(s)Does the entropy of the reaction decrease or increase? Why?
