At one atmosphere pressure, pure water ice melts at 0.000 °C. At 16.0 atm, the melting point is -0.115 °C. The density of water is 1.000 g/cm3 at 0 °C, while that of ice is 0.915 g/cm3    From just this information, i.e., no additional thermodynamic data, estimate the entropy of melting (J/molK).
Assuming a spherical black body (e=1) of a radius 0.5 m at 300 K is radiating energy into a vacuum near absolute zero, what is the rate of entropy change dS/dt of the black body?
What is the entropy change for 3.20 mol of an ideal monatomic gas undergoing a reversible increase in temperature from 380 K to 425 K at constant volume?
