Q12 / 200 · WBJEE 2013 · Chemistry

The change of entropy $(d S)$ is defined as

  • A
    $d S=\frac{\delta q}{T}$
  • B
    $d S=\frac{d H}{T}$
  • Correct answer
    C
    $d S=\frac{\delta q_{eqv}}{T}$
  • D
    $d S=\frac{d H-d G}{T}$

Solution

The entropy is the measure of disorder or randomness in a system. When a system changes from one state to another, the change of entropy, $d S$ is given by $$ d S=\frac{\delta q_{\mathrm{rev}}}{T} $$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
