Question

Choose the substance which has higher possible entropy (per mole) at a given temperature.

Options

A.Solid carbon dioxide

B.Nitrogen gas at 1 atm

C.Nitrogen gas at 0.01 atm.

D.Nitrogen gas at 0.00001 atm.

Solution

Entropy of gas is greater and it increases with the increase in volume (decrease in pressure).
