Question

Entropy of the reaction x+ y=xy
where reactants side is in gaseous state and product side is in liquid state

Answer 1

Entropy (S) - A measure of the disorder in a system. Entropy is a state function. Gases particles are in a state of constant random motion.in this reaction The reactant changes from a gas to a liquid, and gases are more disordered than their respective liquids. So entropy decreases
