The enthalpy of fusion of water is 1.435 kcal/mol. The molar entropy change for the melting of ice at 0 C is
- 10.52 cal/(mol K)
- 21.04 cal/(mol K)
- 5.260 cal/(mol K)
- 0.526 cal/(mol K)
Answer
(3) 5.260 cal/(mol K)
Solution
At the melting point, fusS= fusHTf
fusH=1.435 kcal mol-1=1435 cal mol-1 ; Tf=273 K
fusS= 1435273
=5.26 cal mol-1 K-1
Answer: (3)
