Amongst the chemical reactions given below, the reactions with increasing entropy are
$(i)$ $H_2O_{(l)} \rightarrow H_2O_{(g)}$
$(ii)$ $C_{(s)} + CO_{2(g)} \rightarrow 2CO_{(g)}$
$(iii)$ $2H_{2(g)} + O_{2(g)} \rightarrow 2H_2O_{(l)}$
$(iv)$ $N_{2(g)} + O_{2(g)} \rightarrow \text{Mixture of } N_2 \text{ and } O_2$

The standard entropies of $CO_{2(g)}$,$C_{(s)}$,and $O_{2(g)}$ are $213.5$,$5.740$,and $205 \ J \ K^{-1} \ mol^{-1}$ respectively. The standard entropy of formation of $CO_{2(g)}$ is $...... \ J \ K^{-1} \ mol^{-1}$.
