Chapter 20, Problem 20.22E
CALC You decide to take a nice hot bath but discover that your thoughtless roommate has used up most of the hot water. You fill the tub with 195 kg of 30.0°C water and attempt to warm it further by pouring in 5.00 kg of boiling water from the stove. (a) Is this a reversible or an irreversible process? Use physical reasoning to explain. (b) Calculate the final temperature of the bath water. (c) Calculate the net change in entropy of the system (bath water + boiling water), assuming no heat exchange with the air or the tub itself.

You plan to add a certain amount of heatto a gas in order to raise its temperature. (a) If you add the heat atconstant volume, is the increase in temperature greater than, lessthan, or equal to the increase in temperature if you add the heatat constant pressure? (b) Choose the best explanation from amongthe following:I. The same amount of heat increases the temperature by thesame amount, regardless of whether the volume or the pressure is held constant.II. All the heat goes into raising the temperature when added atconstant volume; none goes into mechanical work.III. Holding the pressure constant will cause a greater increase intemperature than simply having a fixed volume.
