During the melting of a slab of ice at 273 K a atmospheric pressure

A

Positive work is done by the ice-water system on the atmosphere .

B

Positive work is done on the ice-water system by the atmosphere.

C

the internal energy of ice- water system increases

D

The internal energy of the ice-water system decreases

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, C
There is a decrease in volume during melting of an ice slab. Therefore negative work is done by the ice- water system on to the surrounding `implies W =-ve`
Heat is absorbed during melting
`implies Q = +ve implies DeltaU = Q -W = +ve`

Calculate the entropy change accompanying the conversion of 1 mole of ice at 273.1 K and 1 atm pressure into steam at 373.1 K and 1 atm pressure. At 273.1 K, the molar heat of fusion of ice, DeltaH_(f) is 6.00 kJ mol^(-1) and at 373.1 K, the molar heat of vapourization of water, DeltaH_(v) , is 40.6 kJ mol^(-1) . Also assume that the molar heat capacities, C_(p) , in the temperature range 373.1 to 273.1 K remains constant. Given that C_(p) = 75.25 m mol^(-1)K^(-1) and log 13.66 = 1.1354.
