9. Will took a 45.0g cube of solid H20 (an ice cube) out of the freezer at -5.00°C and put it on the table in the lab. The ice cube melts by absorbing heat from the air in the room, which changes slightly, but to four significant figures is at a constant 20.00°C, and the melt-water reaches room temperature. a) Start with AS =S to find the total change in entropy for the H2O for this entire process. b) Start with AS = S to find the change in entropy for the air for this entire process. c) Find the total change in entropy for the universe for this process.

Question
9. Will took a 45.0g cube of solid H2O (an ice cube) out of the freezer at -5.00°C and put it on the table in
the lab. The ice cube melts by absorbing heat from the air in the room, which changes slightly, but to four
significant figures is at a constant 20.00°C, and the melt-water reaches room temperature.
a) Start with AS = S to find the total change in entropy for the H2O for this entire process.
b) Start with AS = S to find the change in entropy for the air for this entire process.
c) Find the total change in entropy for the universe for this process.
d) Use the answer from part c) to explain whether or not this process is reversible.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given data,

                       m=45 g

                       θ₁ = -5°C

                        θ = 0°C

                        θ2= 200C

                       Lice = 8o cal / g,

                       Sice = 1/2 cal/g 0C

                      Swater = 1 cal/g

                      Qtotal  = Q1 +Q2 +Q3

(a)   S=dQT=m SicedTT+mLT+m SwaterdTT        =m Sice θiθdTT+mLT + m Swaterθθ2dTT         =45×12lnT268K273K  + 45×80273  + 45×1lnT273293          = 22.5ln273268+45×80273+45×ln293273           =16.78 cal Kmol
