Explain why the entropy of a gas is much greater than the entropy of a liquid, and why the entropy of a liquid is greater than the entropy of a solid
Entropy of a gas is much greater than entropy of a liquid and entropy of a liquid is greater than the entropy of solid.
Entropy is basically the disorderness in a molecule so clearly the molecular disorder in a gas is greater than in liquid so there must be increase in entropy on vaporization as some when a liquid molecule freezes the disorderness in a molecule decreases means in solid molecule the entropy is ,minimum
The entropy trend is
Gas is greater than liquid is greater than solid
