4.1.4: Entropy Flashcards
1
Q
Entropy
A
A measure of disorder
2
Q
Greater entropy when…
A
something is more disordered
3
Q
Entropy
units
A
J mol-1 K-1
4
Q
Which state has the most to least entropy?
A
Gases - most
liquids
solids - least
5
Q
Tendency for entropy to…
A
increase
6
Q
Higher temp. affect on entropy
A
greater entropy
7
Q
Greater increase in entropy from L to G or S to L
why?
A
L to G
as gases have a large amount of disorder compared to liquids and solids.
