To solve the problem, we need to calculate the free energy change (ΔG) for the melting of ice at 25°C and determine whether the process is spontaneous. We will use the following formula: \[ \Delta G = \Delta H - T \Delta S \] ### Step 1: Convert Temperature to Kelvin The temperature is given as 25°C. We need to convert this to Kelvin. ...
