Question

What is the trend in standard molar entropy with molar mass for similar substances?
Options
A Entropy increases with molar mass because heavier molecules can store more energy in motions, leading to more microstates
Correct Answer
B Entropy decreases with molar mass
C Entropy is independent of molar mass
D Entropy only depends on temperature
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Entropy increases with molar mass because heavier molecules can store more energy in motions, leading to more microstates.

Hint

The notes state this observation.
