Q74

Entropy change of the reaction, H2O(liquid) ⇒ H2O(gas), is termed as the enthalpy of

A.
Solution
B.
Vaporisation
Answer
C.
Formation
D.
None of the above

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
solid ⟹ liquid → melting
liquid ⟹ vapor → vaporization
solid ⟹ vapor → sublimation
So, enthalpy change for the reaction     is enthalpy change of vaporization.
In the question entropy should be replaced by enthalpy.
