MCQ
For the reaction, $2Cl(g) \to Cl_2(g)$, the signs of $\Delta H$ and $\Delta S$ respectively, are:
  • A
    $+, -$
  • B
    $+, +$
  • $-, -$
  • D
    $-, +$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$-, -$
c
$2Cl(g) \to Cl_2(g)$ Entropy is decreasing $(-ve)$ in the reaction. Further the reaction is exothermic since a bond is being formed, i.e., $\Delta H$ is also $-ve$.
