JEE PYQ: Thermodynamics Question 33

Question 33 - 2019 (10 Jan Shift 2)

The process with negative entropy change is:

(1) Dissociation of $\text{CaSO}_3(s)$ to $\text{CaO}(s)$ and $\text{SO}_3(g)$

(2) Sublimation of dry ice

(3) Dissolution of iodine in water

(4) Synthesis of ammonia from $\text{N}_2$ and $\text{H}_2$

Show Answer

Answer: (4)

Solution

In the process of synthesis of ammonia from $\text{N}_2$ and $\text{H}_2$, number of moles decreases which implies that the change in entropy will be negative. $\text{N}_2(g) + 3\text{H}_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2\text{NH}_3(g)$.
