Enthalpy of vaporization of benzene is +...

Enthalpy of vaporization of benzene is `+ 35.3 kJ mol^(-1)` at its boiling point, `80^(@)C`. The entropy change in the transition of the vapour to liquid at its boilling point [in `JK^(-1) mol^(-1)`] is ……….

A

`- 441`

B

`- 100`

C

`+ 441`

D

`+ 100`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Enthaply change for transition of benzene from water vapour to liquid, `Delta H = - 35.3 kJ mol^(-1)`
Boiling point of benzene, `T = 80^(@)C`
` = (80 + 273) K
= 353 K
`:.` Entropy change, Delta S = (Delta H)/(T) = (-35.3)/(353)`
`= - 0.1 kJ K^(-1) mol^(-1)`
`= - 100 JK^(-1) mol^(-1)`
