Reactions that increase the moles of gas will increase in entropy.
thawing
if there is an increase in the number of gas molecules , then ^S > 0
If there is an increase in the number of gas molecules, then S > 0.
usually a change in temperature.... OR PRESSURE Which all mean a change in entropy of the system
delta s (change in entropy) is positive when.... -you go from a solid to a liquid -you go from a liquid to a gas -when you go from a solid to a gas -when there are more mols of products than mols of reactant the change in entropy is negative when the reverse of the above happens
Assuming you mean can entropy be reduced; the answer is yes. Only in an open system such as our planet. The universe is a closed systems. The entropy of the universe cannot be reduced. Chemical changes can reduced entropy in an open system. When gas turns into a liquid or when a liquid turns into a solid; entropy is reduced.
Gas
The entropy of the gas was too high. It means the degree of randomness in gas was very large.
Because the entropy is negative making it spontaneous.
In a closed system the entropy is constant.
Entropy is not change. Entropy is disorder.
