16.3 Exercise 2

Avg difficulty 2.5

Calculate ΔS°\Delta S ° for the following changes.

(a) SnCl4(l)⟶SnCl4(g)\text{SnCl}_{4} \left(l\right) \rightarrow \text{SnCl}_{4} \left(g\right)

(b) CS2(g)⟶CS2(l)\text{CS}_{2} \left(g\right) \rightarrow \text{CS}_{2} \left(l\right)

(c) Cu(s)⟶Cu(g)\text{Cu} \left(s\right) \rightarrow \text{Cu} \left(g\right)

(d) H2O(l)⟶H2O(g)\text{H}_{2} \text{O} \left(l\right) \rightarrow \text{H}_{2} \text{O} \left(g\right)

(e) 2H2(g)+O2(g)⟶2H2O(l)2 \text{H}_{2} \left(g\right) + \text{O}_{2} \left(g\right) \rightarrow 2 \text{H}_{2} \text{O} \left(l\right)

(f) 2HCl(g)+Pb(s)⟶PbCl2(s)+H2(g)2 \text{HCl} \left(g\right) + \text{Pb} \left(s\right) \rightarrow \text{PbCl}_{2} \left(s\right) + \text{H}_{2} \left(g\right)

(g) Zn(s)+CuSO4(s)⟶Cu(s)+ZnSO4(s)\text{Zn} \left(s\right) + \text{CuSO}_{4} \left(s\right) \rightarrow \text{Cu} \left(s\right) + \text{ZnSO}_{4} \left(s\right)
