The direct conversion of A to B is difficult and thus it is converted by path A$\to$C$\to$D$\to$B. Given

$∆{\mathrm{S}}_{\mathrm{A}\to \mathrm{C}}=50<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>\mathrm{e}.\mathrm{u};<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>∆{\mathrm{S}}_{\mathrm{C}\to \mathrm{D}}=30<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>\mathrm{e}.\mathrm{u};<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>∆{\mathrm{S}}_{\mathrm{B}\to \mathrm{D}}=20<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>\mathrm{e}.\mathrm{u}.$

(Where e.u. is the entropy unit)
then $∆{\mathrm{S}}_{\mathrm{A}\to \mathrm{B}}$ would be:

1. +60 e.u                                       

2. +100 e.u

3. -60 e.u                                       

4. -100 e.u

In a flask, colourless N₂O₄(g) is in equilibrium with brown coloured NO₂(g). At equilibrium when the flask is heated to 100$°$C, the brown colour deepens and on cooling it becomes less coloured. Which statement is incorrect about this observation?

1. The $∆$H for the reaction N₂O₄(g)$\rightleftharpoons$ 2NO₂(g) is +ve

2. Paramagnetism increases on heating

3. The $∆$H-$∆$U at 100$°$C is equal to 200 cal

4. Dimerisation is reduced on heating
