A mixture of 1773 g of water and 227 g of ice is in an initial equilibrium state at 0.000°C. The mixture is then, in a reversible process, brought to a second equilibrium state where the water–ice ratio, by mass, is 1.00:1.00 at 0.000°C. (a) Calculate the entropy change of the system during this process. (The heat of fusion for water is 333 kJ/kg.) (b) The system is then returned to the initial equilibrium state in an irreversible process (say, by using a Bunsen burner). Calculate the entropy change of the system during this process, (c) Are your answers consistent with the second law of thermodynamics ?

Science that deals with the amount of energy transferred from one equilibrium state to another equilibrium state.
Three moles of an ideal gas undergo a reversible isothermal compression at 20.0° C. During this compression,
1900 J of work is done on the gas.
