An amount of 5 mole H₂O(l) at 100°C and 1 atm is converted into H₂O(g) at 100°C and 5 atm. ΔG for the process is

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Split into: (i) vaporisation at 100°C, 1 atm — phase equilibrium, ΔG = 0; (ii) isothermal compression of the vapour from 1 to 5 atm: ΔG = nRT ln(P₂/P₁) = 5 × 2 × 373 × ln 5 = 3730 ln 5 cal (R = 2 cal/K-mol). Matches (c).
