Question

Why does entropy increase with temperature


Open in App
Solution

Entropy-

  1. It is defined as the measure of the randomness of particles.
  2. It is denoted by S and measured in J/Kmol
  3. Its formula is represented as the amount of heat emitted or absorbed isothermally and reversibly divided by its absolute temperature
  4. When the temperature increases, the particles collide faster, and kinetic energy increases.
  5. Due to this increase in kinetic energy, the faster moving particles have increased randomness or disorder.
  6. Therefore, the entropy increases
