Calculate the change in entropy when 108 ml of hot (97 oC) water added to 36 ml cold (5 oC) water in a closed Styrofoam cup given that Cp (H2O, l) = 75.5 J/(mol * K)
ans) given Cp = 75.5j/mol*k , V1 = 108ml ,V2 = 36ml, T1 = 97+ 273 =370K,T2 = 5+ 273 =278K
S = Cv *2.303 * log T1 / T2 + R * 2.303 * log V1 /V2
WE know that Cp -Cv =R
Cp - R = Cv
75.5 - 8.314 = 67.186 J/mol k = Cv
S = 2.303 * 67.186 *log 370 / 278 + 8.314 *2.303 *log 108 /36
=19.2019 +19.6242
= 38.8261 j/mol k
