Calculate the entropy change of n-hexane when 1 mole of it evaporates at 341.7 K(∆Hvap = 29.0 kJ mol–1). 

Solution
increment straight S subscript vap space equals space fraction numerator increment straight H subscript vap over denominator straight T subscript straight b end fraction space equals space fraction numerator 29.0 space cross times space 10 cubed space straight J space mol to the power of negative 1 end exponent over denominator 341.7 space straight K end fraction space
space space space equals space 84.9 space JK to the power of negative 1 end exponent space mol to the power of negative 1 end exponent
