Q

What is entropy? (definition)

A

Q

How is entropy mathematically described? What are the variables?

A

S=klnW

S is entropy, k is a constant (1.38x10^-23 JK^-1), W is the # of equivalent energy arrangments in the system (microstates)

Q

Explain why water has greater entropy than ice using microstates?

A

more ways to distribute the energy in water than ice because they can more more, therefore more microstates

A

always negative no matter the temperature

18
Q

If enthalpy is endothermic and the entropy decreases what is the sign for gibb’s free energy?

A

always positive, no matter the temperature

19
Q

If enthalpy is exothermic and the entropy decreases what is the sign for gibb’s free energy?

A

negative at a low temperature and posititve at a high temperatureq

20
Q

If enthalpy is endothermic and the entropy increases what is the sign for gibb’s free energy?

A

posititve at a low temperautre and negative at a high temperautre

21
Q

How can you calculate deltarS0?

A

the sum of coefficients multiplied by standard molar entropies of the products minus the sum of coefficients multiplied by standard molar entropies of the reactants

like standard enthalpy

22
Q

What is the enropy of a pure crystal at 0K?

A

0

23
Q

How does molar mass contribute to entropy?

A

heavier atoms have a higher entropy, larger noble gases have a higher entropy

24
Q

How does molecule complexity relate to entropy?

A

more complex molecules have a higher entropy

25
Q

What are the methods to calculate deltarG0?

A

using standard Gibb’s energy of formation, table is only valid for 298K, calulate standard enthalpy and standard entropy and have T, similar to hess law

26
Q

A

1

27
Q

If deltarG0 is greater than 0, what is the relationship between Q and K?

A

Q is greater than K

28
Q

If deltarG0 is less than 0, what is the relationship between Q and K?

A

Q is less than K

29
Q

If deltarG0 is equal to 0, what is the relationship between Q and K?

A

Q is equal to K

30
Q

How can you calculate deltarG under non standard conditions?

A

deltarG=deltarG0 + RTlnQ

31
Q

How can you find deltarG0 if you know K?

A

deltarG0=-RTlnK

32
Q

If you have two K’s and two temperautre what formula can you use?

A

ln(K2/K1)=-deltarH0/R(1/T2-1/T1)
