5.2.2 Entropy Flashcards
What does high entropy indicate?
The greater the entropy, the greater the dispersal/disorder
Entropy vs enthalpy
Enthalpy released = -ve delta H
Entropy released = +ve delta S
What value indicates a feasible reaction?
Negative S value is a feasible reaction
Total entropy = ?
Total = system + surroundings
Enthalpy of system = ?
System = entropy products minus entropy reactants
Use molar quantities
Enthalpy of surroundings = ?
Surroundings = -ve delta H divided by T
kJ to J = x1000
J to kJ = /1000
Free energy (delta G) = ?
Delta G = delta H minus T times entropy of system
🔼G=🔼H-T🔼S system
kJmol-1
🔼G < 0 = ?
Feasible reaction
If G=0 and reaction is in equilibrium then rearrange:
🔼H=T🔼S
Or
🔼H divided by 🔼S = T
