Delta H, Delta S, G, W

Which reaction has the greatest decrease in entropy?

• 2H₂ (g) +O₂(g) => 2H₂O(l)

• H₂O(g) => H₂O(l)

• 2H₂ (g) +O₂(g) => 2H₂O(g)

• H₂O(g) => H₂O(s)

For which of these processes is the value of ΔH expected to be negative?

1. The temperature increases when calcium chloride dissolves in water.

2. Steam condenses to liquid water

3. Water boils

4. Dry ice sublimates

• 1 and 2 only

• 3 and 4 only

• 2 and 3 only

• 1 only

What factors determine the spontaneity of a reaction?

• enthalpy only

• entropy only

• enthalpy and entropy

• enthalpy, entropy and temperature

When liquid condenses, what are the signs for Δ H and Δ S ?

• Δ H = + Δ S = +

• Δ H = - Δ S = -

• Δ H = + Δ S = -

• Δ H = - Δ S = +

What signs of Δ H and Δ S will always yield a reaction that is non-spontaneous ? (Think of the equation for ΔG°!!)

• Δ H = + Δ S = +

• Δ H = - Δ S = -

• Δ H = - Δ S = +

• Δ H = + Δ S = -

Predict the signs of Δ H , Δ S and Δ G for the reaction:

Mg(s) → Mg(g)

• Δ H= - , Δ S = + and Δ G = - (all temps)

• Δ H= + , Δ S = + and Δ G = - (At all temps)

• Δ H= + , Δ S = + and Δ G = - (At low temps)

• Δ H= + , Δ S = + and Δ G = - (At high temps)

Calculate ΔH° for the combustion of methane.
