A physics student immerses one end of a copper rod in boiling water at 100 ∘C and the other end in an ice-water mixture at 0˚C . The sides of the rod are insulated. After steady-state conditions have been achieved in the rod, an amount of ice with a mass of 0.130 kg melts in a certain time interval. A) For this time interval find the entropy change of the boiling water. ΔS = ___________ B) For this time interval find the entropy change of the ice water mixture. ΔS = ___________ C) For this time interval find the entropy change of the copper rod. Explain why the answer is 0 J/K. D) For this time interval find the total entropy change of the entire system. ΔSsystem = __________
