ANSWER:

Solution 17P

The circles below represent a phase change occurring at constant temperature:

Here we have to find out is the value of each of the following positive (+), negative (-), or zero,

(a) qsys; (b) Δ Esys; (c) Δ Euniv

Step 1

(a)  q sys :-

The above structure represent the a change of phase from solid to gas phase. It is known that the change of phase from solid to gas involves absorbed of energy, hence qsys is +ve.

Thus  qsys is +ve.
