For the reaction,
`2Cl(g)toCl_(2)(g),` what are the signs of `DeltaH and DeltaS`?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In the bond formation energy is released.
`thereforeDeltaH=-ve`
In this reaction two chlorine atoms combine to form one `Cl_(2)` molecule. Entropy decreases
`therefore DeltaS=-ve`.
