Sample AP Chemistry practice question

A heating curve plots temperature versus heat added for a pure substance. The horizontal segment representing vaporization is significantly longer than the horizontal segment representing melting. Which conclusion about the standard entropy of vaporization (ΔS°vap) compared to the standard entropy of fusion (ΔS°fus) is best supported by this graphical difference?

ΔS°vap > ΔS°fus because the gas phase has greater matter dispersal than the liquid.

Correct answer

ΔS°vap < ΔS°fus because the higher temperature reduces the calculated entropy change.

ΔS°vap = ΔS°fus because the mass of the substance remains constant during heating.

ΔS°vap ≈ 0 because the temperature remains constant throughout the phase transition.

Explanation

Interpreting the graph shows that vaporization requires more energy (longer segment) than fusion. Since ΔS = q/T, the large heat input combined with the massive increase in disorder (dispersal of matter) when forming a gas results in ΔS°vap being significantly larger than ΔS°fus.
