b. the entropy of the surroundings d. the entropy of the system and the universe   
_____17.  The dissolution of ammonium nitrate in water is a spontaneous endothermic process. It is spontaneous
because the system undergoes _________.
a. a decrease in enthalpy. c. a decrease in entropy.
b. an increase in entropy. d. an increase in free energy
_____18.  Which one of the following thermodynamic quantities is not a state function?
a. enthalpy b. entropy c. internal energy d. work

_____22.  It is natural for systems in the universe to _____ spontaneously.
a. become disordered c. produce heat
b. become ordered d. do work
_____23.  Why does entropy increase during a spontaneous process?
a. Entropy increases because energy always transfers spontaneously from a dispersed state to a
concentrated state.
b. Entropy increases because energy always transfers spontaneously from a concentrated state to a
dispersed state.
c. Entropy increases because pressure always increases spontaneously.
d. Entropy increases because temperature of any system always increases spontaneously.

a. First b. second c. third d. zeroth
III. CALCULATION
Direction: Calculate the following chemical thermodynamics problem. Show your complete solution on the
space provided. No solution means wrong answer!

ΔHf˚
-145.5 0 -151.9
(kJ/mol)
S˚
56 0 26
(J/K.mol)
(a) Calculate the ΔH˚rxn
