(a)
To determine: Whether liquid water at 0°C has greater entropy or ice at 0°C.
Introduction: Entropy is based on the concept that in an isolated system, everything in nature tends to move from order to disorder. It is a state of randomness in matter. Gas particles have higher energy than solid or liquid particles. Gas particles can randomly move; thus, they have high entropy than liquid and solids.
(b)
To determine: The difference in entropy of ice at -5°C from its entropy at -50°C.
Introduction: Entropy is based on the concept that in an isolated system, everything in nature tends to move from order to disorder. It is a state of randomness in matter. Gas particles have higher energy than solid or liquid particles. Gas particles can randomly move; thus, they have high entropy than liquids and solids. It varies with change in temperature.
