entropy
measure of disorder in a system + how probable the state of a system is
factors affecting entropy
temp
temp inc, avg KE inc, more quanta of energy to distribute, more ways to distribute large quanta, entropy inc
phase
entropy: sol<liq<gas
melting: entropy inc
negligible vol, but orderly arrangement of particles in solid is destroyed, more ways to arrange particles and distribute energy
boiling: bigger entropy inc
particles move more randomly, more disordered + large vol inc, more ways to arrange particles
number of particles
no. of gas molecules inc, move randomly in all directions (gaseous is most disordered state), entropy inc
gas expansion
pressure dec, vol inc, gas spontaneously expands, mroe ways to arrange particles, entropy inc
standard gibbs free energy change of reaction
G = H - TS
G<0: spontaneous (thermodynamically feasible)
G>0: not spontanous
G=0 at eqm
H high, S high: spontanous at high temp (melting, boiling, decomposition)
H low, S low: spontaneous at low temp (freezing, condensation)
H low, S high: spontanous at all temp (organic combustion rxn)
H high, S low: not spontanous at all temp (photosynthesis)
examples of eqm (G=0)
melting & boiling
S = H/T
