Document Summary
Entropy of dissolution: entropy drives the process of dissolution of solutes. If a solute is very ordered and a solvent is somewhat disordered, then when they are mixed they produce a solution that is even more disordered. If i added the entropy of the solute and the entropy of the solvent, then they would total less than the entropy of the solution: therefore, mixing creates additional entropy. If the number of moles of gas decreases, then s rxn is negative. If heat flows into the surroundings from the system then the qsurroundings is -qsystem: qsystem is hsystem at constant temperature, heat is transferred irreversible so qsurroundings is - hsystem, spontaneity is predicted based on properties of the system only. If a reaction is exothermic then h is negative which makes g more negative. If we are at temperatures above the melting point, the t s term dominates and melting is spontaneous.
