Ch.18 - Thermodynamics: Entropy, Free Energy & Equilibrium

Chapter 18, Problem 4

What is the change in entropy (∆S) when 1.32 g of propane (C3H8) at 0.100 atm pressure is compressed by a factor of five at a constant temperature at 20°C? Assume that propane behaves as an ideal gas. (a) ∆S = +13 J/K (b) ∆S = -13 J/K (c) ∆S = - 0.40 J/K (d) ∆S = + 0.40 J/K
