STANDARD Chemistry Entropy and Free Energy MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

A reaction is at equilibrium at 100°C and the enthalpy change for the reaction is 42.6 kJ mol⁻¹. What will be the value of ΔS in J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹?

A

120

B

426.2

C

373.1

D

114.2

Correct Answer

Option D

Detailed Explanation

At equilibrium, ΔG = 0, so ΔH = TΔS. Rearranging gives ΔS = ΔH/T. Substituting the given values, ΔS = 42600 J mol⁻¹ / 373 K = 114.2 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹.
