Calculate the entropy change in the melt...

Calculate the entropy change in the melting of 1kg of ice at `0^(@)C.` Heat of fusion of ice `= 334.72 Jg^(-1).`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Enthalpy f melting of ice, `Delta S _(fus) = ( Delta H _( fus ))/( T _(fus)) = ( 334. 72 J g ^(-1) xx 1000 g)/( 273 K ) = 1226 JK ^(-1)`
