In which of the following process, maximum increase in entropy is observed?
- A Melting of ice
- B Sublimation of naphthalene
- C Condensation of water
- D Dissolution of salt in water
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Sublimation of naphthalene
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The order of entropy in solid, liquid and gas is gas \(>\) liquid \(>\) solid
Hence, in sublimation of naphthalene, maximum increase in entropy is observed.
Hence, in sublimation of naphthalene, maximum increase in entropy is observed.
