Thermodynamics and Thermochemistry - Result Question 102

####27. For the process $H _2 O(l)(1 bar, 373 K) \rightarrow H _2 O(g)$ (1 bar, $373 K$ ), the correct set of thermodynamic parameters is

(2007, 3M)

(a) $\Delta G=0, \Delta S=+$ ve

(b) $\Delta G=0, \Delta S=-$ ve

(c) $\Delta G=+$ ve, $\Delta S=0$

(d) $\Delta G=-$ ve, $\Delta S=+$ ve

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. At transition point ( $373 K, 1.0$ bar), liquid remains in equilibrium with vapour phase, therefore $\Delta G=0$. As vaporisation occur, degree of randomness increases, hence $\Delta S>0$.
