Question

The entropy of a sample of CO2 increases as the CO2 changes from

(1) gas to liquid (3) liquid to solid
(2) gas to solid (4) solid to gas

Answer 1

The answer is (4) solid to gas. The entropy is the measurement of disorder. The entropy of CO2 under different status will increase from solid to liquid to gas. So the answer is (4).

Answer 2

Answer: Option (4) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Entropy is defined as the degree of randomness. That is, when particles of an object or matter are rapidly moving from one place to another then it means that the object has high entropy.

For example, gases have high entropy than liquids and solids.

Whereas when particles of an object are closer to each other then it means that entropy of the object is low. For example, solids have low entropy.

Thus, we can conclude that the entropy of a sample of
`CO_(2)` increases as the
`CO_(2)` changes from solid to gas.
