Problem

Which of the following best describes what happens to the standard entropy change, ΔS∘\Delta S^\circ, of an elementary reaction when the reaction is written in the reverse direction? a) ΔS∘\Delta S^\circ is multiplied by −T-T, where TT is the absolute temperature. b) ΔS∘\Delta S^\circ is unchanged because entropy is a state function. c) ΔS∘\Delta S^\circ keeps the same magnitude but its sign is reversed. d) ΔS∘\Delta S^\circ is divided by Avogadro’s number to account for reversed stoichiometry.
