ChemistryThermodynamics (C)WBJEEWBJEE 2011
Options:
  • A \(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{S}^{\circ}}{2.303 \mathrm{R}}\)
  • B \(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{S}^{\circ}}{\mathrm{R}}\)
  • C \(-\frac{\Delta S^{\circ}}{R}\)
  • D \(\mathrm{R} \times \Delta \mathrm{S}^{\circ}\)

The correct answer is: \(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{S}^{\circ}}{\mathrm{R}}\)
Hints: \(\Delta \mathrm{G}^{\circ}=-\mathrm{RT} \operatorname{InK}\)
or, \(\Delta \mathrm{H}^{\circ}-\mathrm{T} \Delta \mathrm{S}^{\circ}=-\mathrm{RT} \operatorname{InK}\)


or, \(\operatorname{InK}=\frac{-\Delta \mathrm{H}^{\circ}}{\mathrm{RT}}+\frac{\Delta \mathrm{S}^{\circ}}{\mathrm{R}}\) comparing with \(\mathrm{y}=\mathrm{m} \cdot \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{c}\)
\(\therefore \mathrm{y}\) intercept is \(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{S}^{\circ}}{\mathrm{R}}\)
