Entropy change of mixing two liquid substances depends upon the_________________?

Correct answer: C. Both A. and B

  • A. Molar concentration
  • B. Quantity (i.e. number of moles)
  • C. Both A. and B
  • D. Neither A. nor B

Explanation

For ideal mixing, ΔSmix = -RΣni ln xi, so the entropy change depends on both the component amounts and their mole fractions or concentrations. Hence both listed factors matter.
