    The document summarizes entropy changes that occur during chemical reactions and phase changes. It defines the standard entropy change of a reaction as the difference between the sum of the standard molar entropies of the products and reactants. It also describes how entropy changes with temperature and how entropy can be used to determine the spontaneity and direction of chemical reactions and phase changes.

    8 Entropy change for a chemical reaction


    entropy change accompanying a chemical reaction is defined as the difference between the sum of the entropies of all products and the sum of the entropies of all reactants. Thus for a reaction,
    The entropy change;

    Where SM, SN, are the entropies per mole of the various substances. If the reactants and products are in their standard states, then the entropy change becomes standard entropy change of reaction
    Where SoM, SoN . refer to the standard molar entropies of the various substances. The entropy change of a reaction is generally evaluated at constant T an P
    2

    Entropy values of elements and compounds are calculated with the help of the 3rd Law of thermodynamics and values at 298K and 1atm are given, just like enthalpy values. Example 3.1 Calculate the standard entropy change for the reaction <Cr2O3> + 3<C> = 2<Cr> + 3(CO) at 298K Given:
    So298<Cr2O3> = 81.17 J/K/mol So298<C> = 5.69 J/K/mol So298<Cr> = 23.76 J/K/mol So298(CO) = 197.90 J/K/mol

    3.9 Variation of Entropy Change with Temperature


    If there is change of state of a system such that the temperature changes, the entropy change accompanying such a process can be calculated by integrating between the limit of the temperature

    Where ST2 and ST1 are the entropies of the system at temperatures T2 and T1, respectively And since

    It follows that

    Or

    The reference entropy is usually that at 298K, thus


    And for substances in their standard state, the expression becomes;

    In the case of a chemical reaction involving reactants and products in their standard states, the changes in standard entropies and heat capacities must be considered Eqn 3.11 becomes
    If there is any phase transformation taking place between T1 and T2, then the entropy changes accompanying such transformations must be added
    7

    The eqn becomes;

    Example 3.2 Zinc melts at 420oC and its standard entropy at 25oC is 41.63 J/K/mol. Calculate the standard entropy of zinc at 750oC. Given: Hfusion<Zn> = 7.28 kJ/mol Cp<Zn> = 22.98 + 10.04 x 10-3 T J/K/mol Cp[Zn] = 21.38 J/K/mol

    3.10 Entropy as Criterion for Equilibrium or Spontaneity


    The entropy function is useful in metallurgical operations in determining the direction in which a process will proceed and the final equilibrium state of the process. For a chemical reaction proceeding from initial state A to final state B, then Stotal = SB,total - SA,total

    In an isolated system of constant internal energy and constant volume, oIf Stotal = 0, then the system is at equilibrium and no spontaneous change will occur o If Stotal > 0, the reaction will occur spontaneously from sate A to state B o If Stotal < 0, the reaction will occur spontaneously in the reverse direction i.e. from state B to state A
    10

    Thus for a chemical reaction within a system will have positive affinity to take place (or spontaneous) if it leads to an increase in entropy, without there being any exchange of heat with the surroundings. Most chemical reactions may be carried out either reversibly or irreversibly, but more heat is absorbed from the surroundings if the reaction is carried out in a reversible manner.
