    179 (J/K*mol)

    Explanation:

    The value for ΔSºreaction for this reaction is calculated as follows:

    2 * Sº of Al (s) + 3 * Sº of H2O (g) - 3 * Sº of H2 (g) - S° of Al2O3 (s)

    that is, the subtraction of the standard entropy of the reactants to the products.

    | Al (s) | H2O (g) | H2 (g) | Al2O3 (s)

    standard entropy (J/K*mol) | 28.3 | 188.825 | 130.684 | 50.92

    So:

    ΔSºreaction = 2*28.3 + 3*188.825 - 3*130.684 - 50.92 ≈ 179 (J/K*mol)
