Third Law of Thermodynamics & Entropy Changes

Instructions: The following questions may require the use of a reference table. The questions concern the Third Law of Thermodynamics and calculating entropy changes in a reaction.

  2. It is an extensive property, in that it depends on the number of moles
  3. It is neither extensive nor intensive
  4. It is an extensive property, in that it depends on the identity of the substance
2.
