A 2.00-kg block of ice at 0.00C is dropped into a very large lake at 25.0C and completely melts. For water, the heat of fusion is 3.35  105 J/kg,
 
  the heat of vaporization is 2.25  105 J/kg, and the specific heat is 4190 J/kgK. The net change in entropy of the system consisting of the ice and the lake due to this melting process is closest to
  A) 2.45  103 J/K.
  B) 2.24  103 J/K.
  C) 2.06  102 J/K.
  D) -2.45  103 J/K.
  E) -2.06  102 J/K.

Question 2

A brass rod, 75.0 cm long and having a cross-sectional area of 2.50 cm2, conducts heat from a large furnace at 375C into a very large cold water bath at 10.0C
 
  without losing any heat at the lateral surface of the rod. Steady state has been established, and the thermal conductivity of brass is 109 W/mK. The rate at which the entropy of the system (furnace plus water) is changing is closest to
  A) 2.05  10-2 W/K.
  B) 2.64  10-2 W/K.
  C) 3.54  10-2 W/K.
  D) 4.69  10-2 W/K.
  E) 6.74  10-2 W/K.

Did you know?

About 60% of newborn infants in the United States are jaundiced; that is, they look yellow. Kernicterus is a form of brain damage caused by excessive jaundice. When babies begin to be affected by excessive jaundice and begin to have brain damage, they become excessively lethargic.

Did you know?

As the western states of America were settled, pioneers often had to drink rancid water from ponds and other sources. This often resulted in chronic diarrhea, causing many cases of dehydration and death that could have been avoided if clean water had been available.

Did you know?

Approximately 500,000 babies are born each year in the United States to teenage mothers.

Did you know?

More than 34,000 trademarked medication names and more than 10,000 generic medication names are in use in the United States.

Did you know?

Hyperthyroidism leads to an increased rate of metabolism and affects about 1% of women but only 0.1% of men. For most people, this increased metabolic rate causes the thyroid gland to become enlarged (known as a goiter).
