Calculate the entropy change for melting 1 g ice at 0^ C in Jg ⁻¹ ~K ⁻¹ if heat of fusion of ice at 0^ C is 80 ~J ~K ⁻¹ .
Options
- A0.039
- B0.293
- C8.0
- D27.3
Correct answer
B. 0.293
Step-by-step solution
For the reaction, H ₂ O _ ( s ) H ₂ O _ (l) The change in Gibbs energy at constant temperature and constant pressure is given by, G = H - T ~S At equilibrium, G =0 S = H _ fusion T = 80 273 =0.293 ( 0^ C =273 ~K )
