**Problem Statement: Calculating Change in Entropy of Helium**

Helium (1.9 kg) is being stored in a rigid tank at an initial temperature of 21°C. The tank is then placed outside where the temperature increases to 26°C. Calculate the change in entropy for this process. Round your answer to three decimal places. 

**Note:** This question involves understanding the thermodynamic principles related to entropy change in gases when temperature varies.
