Chapter 18, Problem 40CI
Thalassemia is an inherited genetic mutation that limits the production of the beta Chain needed for the formation of hemoglobin. If low levels of the beta chain are produced, There is shortage of red blood cells (anemia); as a result, the body does not have sufficient Amounts of oxygen. In one form of thalassemia,a single

1) Suppose 0.1 kg ice at 0°C (273K) is in 0.5kg water at 20°C (293K). What is the change in entropy of the ice as it melts at 0°?
To produce the original "water gas" mixture, carbon (in a combustible form known as coke) is reacted with steam: 131.4 kJ + H20(g) + C(s) → CO(g) + H2(g) From this information and the equations in the previous problem, calculate the enthalpy for the combustion or carbon to form carbon dioxide.
