Match the following processes with their corresponding entropy changes:
Process Entropy Change
$(a)$ Liquid to vapor conversion $(1)$ $\Delta S = 0$
$(b)$ Process not spontaneous at any temperature $(2)$ $\Delta S = (+)$
$(c)$ Reversible expansion of an ideal gas $(3)$ $\Delta S = (-)$

(A) The correct matches are:
$(a)$ Liquid to vapor conversion involves an increase in disorder,so $\Delta S = (+)$.
$(b)$ $A$ process that is not spontaneous at any temperature typically involves a decrease in entropy and an increase in enthalpy,so $\Delta S = (-)$.
$(c)$ For a reversible process in an isolated system or specific reversible expansions,the entropy change of the universe is zero,so $\Delta S = 0$.
Therefore,the correct sequence is $(a-2, b-3, c-1)$.

At $300 \, K$ temperature,the standard heat of formation of benzoic acid $(s)$,$CO_{2(g)}$,and $H_2O_{(l)}$ are $-408$,$-393$,and $-286 \, kJ \, mol^{-1}$ respectively. At constant pressure,the heat of combustion for benzoic acid will be $..... \, kJ$.

The free energy change for the following reactions are given below:
$C_2H_{2(g)} + \frac{5}{2}O_{2(g)} \to 2CO_{2(g)} + H_2O_{(l)}; \Delta G^o = -1234 \ kJ$
$C_{(s)} + O_{2(g)} \to CO_{2(g)}; \Delta G^o = -394 \ kJ$
