The Concept of Entropy (S)
Entropy refers to the state of order.
A change in order is a change in the number of ways of arranging the particles, and it is a key factor in determining the direction of a spontaneous process.

where S is entropy, W is the number of ways of arranging the components of a system, and k is a constant (the Boltzman constant), R/NA (R = universal gas constant, NA = Avogadro’s number.
•A system with relatively few equivalent ways to arrange its components (smaller W) has relatively less disorder and low entropy.
•A system with many equivalent ways to arrange its components (larger W) has relatively more disorder and high entropy.

Predicting Relative S0 Values of a System
1. Temperature changes
2. Physical states and phase changes
3. Dissolution of a solid or liquid
5. Atomic size or molecular complexity
4. Dissolution of a gas
S0 increases as the temperature rises.
S0 increases as a more ordered phase changes to a less ordered phase.
S0 of a dissolved solid or liquid is usually greater than the S0 of the pure solute. However, the extent depends upon the nature of the solute and solvent.
A gas becomes more ordered when it dissolves in a liquid or solid.
In similar substances, increases in mass relate directly to entropy.
In allotropic substances, increases in complexity (e.g. bond flexibility) relate directly to entropy.

(a) 1mol of SO2(g) or 1mol of SO3(g)(b) 1mol of CO2(s) or 1mol of CO2(g)(c) 3mol of oxygen gas (O2) or 2mol of ozone gas (O3)(d) 1mol of KBr(s) or 1mol of KBr(aq)(e) Seawater in midwinter at 20C or in midsummer at 230C(f) 1mol of CF4(g) or 1mol of CCl4(g)
PLAN: In general less ordered systems have higher entropy than ordered systems and entropy increases with an increase in temperature.

PROBLEM: Calculate S0rxn for the combustion of 1mol of propane at 250C.
C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(l)
PLAN: Use summation equations. It is obvious that entropy is being lost because the reaction goes from 6 mols of gas to 3 mols of gas.
SOLUTION: Find standard entropy values in the Appendix or other table.
S = [(3 mol)(S0 CO2) + (4 mol)(S0 H2O)] - [(1 mol)(S0 C3H8) + (5 mol)(S0 O2)]
S = [(3 mol)(213.7J/mol*K) + (4 mol)(69.9J/mol*K)] - [(1 mol)(269.9J/mol*K) + (5 mol)(205.0J/mol*K)]

Sample Problem 20.3:
SOLUTION:
Determining Reaction Spontaneity
PROBLEM: At 298K, the formation of ammonia has a negative S0sys;
Calculate S0rxn, and state whether the reaction occurs
spontaneously at this temperature.
N2(g) + 3H2(g) 2NH3(g) S0sys = -197 J/K
PLAN: S0universe must be > 0 in order for this reaction to be spontaneous, so
S0surroundings must be > 197 J/K. To find S0
surr, first find Hsys; Hsys = Hrxn which can be calculated using H0
f values from tables. S0universe =
S0surr + S0
sys.
H0rx = [(2 mol)(H0
fNH3)] - [(1 mol)(H0fN2) + (3 mol)(H0
fH2)]
H0rx = -91.8 kJ
S0surr = -H0
sys/T = -(-91.8x103J/298K) = 308 J/K
S0universe = S0
surr + S0sys = 308 J/K + (-197 J/K) = 111 J/K
S0universe > 0 so the reaction is spontaneous.

SOLUTION:
Determining the Effect of Temperature on G0
An important reaction in the production of sulfuric acid is the oxidation of SO2(g) to SO3(g):
2SO2(g) + O2(g) 2SO3(g)
At 298K, G0 = -141.6kJ; H0 = -198.4kJ; and S0 = -187.9J/K
(a) Use the data to decide if this reaction is spontaneous at 250C, and predict how G0 will change with increasing T.
(b) Assuming H0 and S0 are constant with increasing T, is the reaction spontaneous at 900.0C?
The sign of G0 tells us whether the reaction is spontaneous and the signs of H0 and S0 will be indicative of the T effect. Use the Gibbs free energy equation for part (b).
(a) The reaction is spontaneous at 250C because G0 is (-). Since H0 is (-) but S0 is also (-), G0 will become less spontaneous as the temperature increases.

as written.)(b) In experiments to determine the effect of temperature on reaction spontaneity, two sealed containers are filled with 0.500atm of SO2, 0.0100atm of O2, and 0.100atm of SO3 and kept at 250C and at 700.0C. In which direction, if any, will the reaction proceed to reach equilibrium at each temperature?(c) Calculate G for the system in part (b) at each temperature.

Sample Problem 20.7: Calculating G at Nonstandard Conditions
continued (2 of 3)
(a) Calculating K at the two temperatures:
G0 = -RTlnK so
K e (G 0 /RT)
At 298, the exponent is -G0/RT = -(-141.6kJ/mol)(103J/kJ)
(8.314J/mol*K)(298K)= 57.2
K e (G 0 /RT) = e57.2 = 7x1024
At 973, the exponent is -G0/RT(-12.12kJ/mol)(103J/kJ)
(8.314J/mol*K)(973K)= 1.50
K e (G 0 /RT) = e1.50 = 4.5

Sample Problem 20.7: Calculating G at Nonstandard Conditions
continued (3 of 3)
(b) The value of Q =pSO3
2
(pSO2)2(pO2)=
(0.100)2
(0.500)2(0.0100)= 4.00
Since Q is < K at both temperatures the reaction will shift right; for 298K there will be a dramatic shift while at 973K the shift will be slight.
(c) The nonstandard G is calculated using G = G0 + RTlnQ
G298 = -141.6kJ/mol + (8.314J/mol*K)(kJ/103J)(298K)(ln4.00)
G298 = -138.2kJ/mol
G973 = -12.12kJ/mol + (8.314J/mol*K)(kJ/103J)(973K)(ln4.00)
G298 = -0.9kJ/mol
