Chapter 17, Problem 17.11QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Ice cubes are given to melt in a glass of lemonade that leads to the cooling of the lemonade from $\text{10}\text{.0}\text{°C}$ to $\text{0}\text{°C}$. Considering the ice cubes as the system, the signs of $\Delta S_{\text{sys}}$ and $\Delta S_{\text{surr}}$ are to be stated.

Concept introduction: Entropy is a thermodynamic property which shows the randomness or disorder of the atoms within the system. It measures the distribution of energy in the system at specific temperature.

$\Delta S_{\text{sys}}$ is known as the entropy change for a system and $\Delta S_{\text{surr}}$ is known as entropy change for a surrounding.

To determine: The signs of $\Delta S_{\text{sys}}$ and $\Delta S_{\text{surr}}$ for the given process.
