What do you understand by:
(i) The entropy of fusion?
(ii) The entropy of vapourisation ?


(i) The entropy of fusion. It may be defined as the entropy change when one mole of the solid substance changes into liquid form at its melting point. For example when ice melts as

      
where ∆Hfusion is the enthalpy of fusion and Tis the fusion temperature. Since ∆Hfus is +ve, therefore ∆Sjfus is +ve, hence the process of fusion is accompanied by an increase of entropy.

(ii) The entropy of vapourisation. It may be defined as the entropy change when one mole of the liquid changes into vapour at its boiling point.
       

Since ∆Hvap is +ve, therefore ∆Svap is +ve, hence the process of vapourisation is accompanied by an increase of entropy.
