a. While ice is melting, it absorbs 334 kJ of heat per kilogram of ice. This takes place at a constant temperature of 0°C. What is the entropy change of 4 kg of ice while it melts? b. While water is boiling, it absorbs 2257 kJ of heat per kilogram of water. This takes place at a constant temperature of 100°C. What is the entropy change of 10 kg of water while it boils? c. To boil methane, you must add 760 kJ of heat per kilogram of methane. If you boil 1 kg of methane, the entropy increases by 6.72 kJ/K. What is the temperature at which methane boils (in Celsius)
