Explanation / Answer

Answer –

13) D. Neon

As the molar mass of increase the molar entropy of gases are increase, so the lowest molar entropy is for the Ne, because Ne has the smallest molar mass than others.

14) D. Sublimation of dry ice

We know the entropy is the degree of randomness, so in the gases phase degree of randomness is more than liquid then solid. So when phases changes from solid to liquid, solid to gas and liquid to gases degree of randomness increase and reverse way it is decrease. So from the given option only Sublimation of dry ice has degree of randomness increase, means solid to gas.

15) D. (1), (2), and (3)

We are given reaction A ---> B is spontaneous means at same condition when it is reverse reaction is non- spontaneous, so first statement is correct. Second statement also correct A(g) will be completely converted to B(g) if sufficient time is allowed. We know spontaneous reaction are proceed rapidly.

16) A. (1)

We know spontaneous process means the process which completely it own and no need any externally force. When solution is unsaturated then there is allow more solute dissolved, but in the saturate and super saturate ther is no further solute will allow for dissolving, means there is solute is not dissolved its own, there is need some external forces.

19) E. 137°C, 35 L

As the volume and temperature increase entropy also increase, so answer is 137°C, 35 L
