It can be shown that as a mass m with specific heat c changes temperature from T i to T f its change in entropy is Δ S = mc ln( T f / T i ) if the temperatures are expressed in kelvin. Suppose you put 79 g of milk at 278 K into an insulated cup containing 296 g of coffee at 355 K, and that each has the specific heat of water. The system comes to an equilibrium temperature of 339 K. (a) What is the entropy change of the milk? (b) What is the entropy change of the coffee? (c) What is the entropy change of the universe due to adding the milk to the coffee?

It can be shown that as a mass m with specific heat c changes temperature from 7; to Tfits
change in entropy is AS = mcln (T₁/T₁) if the temperatures are expressed in kelvin. Suppose
you put 79 g of milk at 278 K into an insulated cup containing 296 g of coffee at 355 K, and
that each has the specific heat of water. The system comes to an equilibrium temperature of
339 K. What is the entropy change of the milk?
What is the entropy S of this system at a given temperature T, asT→∞, and T→0. We expect the entropy S to be 0 at T= 0. Does entropy increase as the temperature T increases?
We trapped 28 kg of dry air, and it initially has standard pressure and temperature. The trapped air parcel rises in the atmosphere until the temperature is 188 K. What is the change in entropy if the pressure decreases by 28% after the parcel rises?
