How much entropy do gases have?
gases have high entropy because the particles are free to move
3 of 12
How much entropy do solids have?
Solids have low

Can Entropy change during a chemical reaction?
Yes... entropy of a system can change during a chemical reaction depending on what is produced

If gibbs free energy value is negative, is the reaction feasible?
If ΔG is a negative value, a reaction is feasible. The more negative the value the more
