Question

Case 1:  1 kg of water initially at 20 C is heated to 100 C by contact with a heat reservoir at 100 C.

Assume Cp  for water is constant at 4.2 kJ/ kg *K.

  1. What is the entropy change of the water?
  2. What is the entropy change of the reservoir?
  3. What is ΔSTotal ?

Case 2: Now, as an alternative, 1 kg of water at 20 C is first heated to 60 C by contact with a heat reservoir at 60 C, and then this water is heated from  60 C to 100 C by contact with a heat reservoir at 100 C.

  1. What is the entropy change of the water?
  2. What is the entropy change of the reservoir?
  3. What is ΔSTotal ?
