What happens to the entropy in the reaction?
Entropy increases. In a reaction comprised of sub-reactions, some sub-reactions may show a decrease in entropy but the entire reaction will show an increase of entropy. As an example, the formation of sugar molecules by living organisms is a process that shows decrease in entropy at the expense of the loss of entropy by the sun.
The favorability or spontaneity of a reaction increases when during the course of a reaction?
the energy content and entropy both decrease
How can you decrease the entropy of static body?
You can decrease the entropy of a static body by reducing the temperature.
Does diffusion involve a decrease in entropy?
no.
What reaction would have an increased entropy?
At high temperature the entropy increase.
What would cause entropy to decrease in a reaction?
The products becoming more ordered than the reactants

What reaction would cause decrease in entropy?
CO(g)+3H2(g)->CH4(g)+H2O(g)

What reactions would have a decrease in entropy?
2NO2(g) N2O4(g)
What types of reaction would decrease the entropy within a cell?
Synthesis reactions such as dehydration synthesis. For a reaction to proceed the there must be a net decrease in the Gibbs Free Energy of the system. The Gibbs Free Energy is made up of two terms: Enthalpy or Heat Content H Entropy S For a reaction in which the entropy is increasing to proceed there would have to be a sufficient release of heat content (enthalpy) such that Change in Free Energy G would be negative, ie decrease...
What would cause entropy cause in a reaction?
The products becoming more spread out.
Under what condition can entropy decrease in a system?
First of all, entropy is the defined as the extent to which something is disordered. In chemistry, for entropy in a SYSTEM to decrease, the products of a reaction must be less disordered than the reactants. The extent of "disordered-ness" can be seen by the physical states of the substances. A gas is more disordered than a liquid, which is more disordered than a solid. So, an example of a reaction that leads to a decrease in entropy is: HCl(gas) +NH3(gas) -----> NH4Cl(solid) So you see, there are more gaseous molecules in the reactant side of the equation than in the product side, which means the products are less disordered than the reactants. ----------------------------------------------- However, one must note that if the entropy of a system(reaction) decreases, the entropy of the surroundings should increase. This is because change in TOTAL entropy(A) = change in entropy of SYSTEM(B) + change in entropy of SURROUNDINGS(C). It is a rule that A must increase in every case ( have a positive value). If the B is negative(a decrease in entropy), C must be positive(an increase in entropy) to keep the value of A positive.
How can you decrease the entropy of static body?
You can decrease the entropy of a static body by reducing the temperature.
What happens to the entropy in the reaction I2s I2g?
Entropy increases in the reaction.
For which of reaction listed below will gibbs free energy always be positive?
Guys watch out the question, if your question end with positive then the answer will be An endothermic reaction that decreases in entropy. If the question end with negative then its An exothermic reaction that increases in entropy--APEX hope this help
Is there anyway to decrease the entropy?
Only by increasing the entropy of another system.
