SECTION B Answer ALL the questions. Write your answers in the spaces provided. 16 This question is about the reaction between solid barium hydroxide and solid ammonium chloride. This reaction occurs at room temperature. Ba(OH)2(s) + 2NH4Cl(s) (cid:111) BaCl2.2H2O(s) + 2NH3(g) (a) (i) Suggest how you would speed up this reaction in the laboratory, without heating. (1)D O N O T W R I T E I N T H I S A R E A(ii) Give a test, with the result, for NH3(g). (1)(b) (i) Calculate the standard entropy change for the system, (cid:507)S(cid:57) system , for this reaction. Include a sign and units in your answer. The standard entropy of BaCl2.2H2O(s) is +202.9 J K1 mol1. Use your Data Booklet for the other values. (ii) Is the sign for the standard entropy change of the system, (cid:507)S(cid:57) system , as you would expect? Justify your answer.
