Question:

a. For each of the following changes state whether the entropy of the system decreases or increases. In each case, explain your answer in terms of the order or disorder of the particles

i. NaCl(s) + aq → Na+(aq) + Cl(aq)

ii. H2O(g) → H2O(l)

b. The table shows the formula, state and standard molar entropies of the first six straight-chain alkanes.

i. Describe and explain the trend in the standard molar entropies of these alkanes.

ii. Estimate the value of the standard molar entropy of the straight-chain alkane with the formula C6H14.
