What happens to the entropy in the reaction I2(s) I2(g)?A.It is impossible to tell.B.Entropy increases in the reaction.C.Entropy stays the same in the reaction.D.Entropy decreases in the reaction.SUBMITarrow_backPREVIOUS
Solution
B. Entropy increases in the reaction.
This is because entropy is a measure of disorder or randomness. In the given reaction, I2 is changing from a solid state to a gaseous state. Gases are more disordered than solids because the particles are more spread out and move more freely. Therefore, the entropy increases.
