Look at each reaction and try to decide whether molecular randomness increases or
decreases. Reactions that increase the number of gaseous molecules generally have a
positive ΔS, while reactions that decrease the number of gaseous molecules have a
negative ΔS. For (a) the amount of molecular randomness in the system decreases
when 2 mol of gaseous reactants combine to give 1 mol of liquid product, so the
reaction has a negative ΔS°. In (b) the amount of molecular randomness in the
system increases when 9 mol of gaseous reactants give 10 mol of gaseous products,
so the reaction has a positive ΔS°.
9. What is the equation for Gibbs free-energy change (ΔG) and what does each quantity
define? Remember that the value of the free-energy change ΔG is a general criterion for
the spontaneity of a chemical or physical process.
Gibbs free-energy change (ΔG), ΔG = ΔH - T ΔS, determines in a chemical reaction
or other process is spontaneous. ΔG stands for free-energy change, while ΔH,
enthalpy, is the heat of the reaction. T stands temperature and is measured in
Kelvins. Lastly ΔS is the entropy change.
10. The two gases BF
(g) and BCl
(g) are mixed in equal molar amounts. All B⎯F

bonds have about the same bond enthalpy, as do all B⎯Cl bonds. Explain why the
mixture tends to react to form BF
Cl(g) and BCl
F(g).

A system containing the “chemically mixed” B halides has greater entropy than a
system of BCl
and BF
. It has the same number of gas phase molecules, but more

distinguishable kinds of molecules, hence more microstates and higher entropy.
