Entropy Change Calculations for Reactions

This document provides two examples of calculating entropy changes for chemical reactions using given entropy values from a table. The first reaction is H2(g) + F2(g) → 2HF(g) and the second is 2C4H10(g) + 13O2(g) → 8CO2(g) + 10H2O(g). It shows the entropy values that would be looked up from a table and the calculation of the entropy change by subtracting the sum of the reactants' entropy values from the sum of the products' entropy values.

1.

Calculate the entropy change for the following reaction using the table of
entropy values.

H2 (g) + F2 (g) → 2HF(g)

Answer:

2. Calculate the entropy change for the reaction using the table of entropy
values.
2C4H10 (g) + 13O2 (g) → 8CO2 (g) + 10H2O(g)
Answer:

ΔSrxn = [(8 x 213.6) + (10 x 188.8)] - [(2 x 310.0) + (13 x 205.0)] = 311.8
