The change in the entropy of the surrounding, ΔSₛᵤᵣ during the cooling process is 1000 J/K (Option C)
What is entropy?
Entropy is simply defined as the measure of the degree of the disorderliness of a system. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:
ΔS = ΔH / T
Where
ΔS is the change in entropy of system
ΔH is the enthalpy change
T is the temperature
How to determine the entropy of the system (ΔSₛᵧₛ)
- Enthalpy change (ΔH) = –300 KJ
- Temperature (T) = 300 K
- Change in entropy of system (ΔSₛᵧₛ) =?
ΔS = ΔH / T
ΔSₛᵧₛ = –300 / 300
ΔSₛᵧₛ = –1
ΔSₛᵧₛ = –1 × 1000
ΔSₛᵧₛ = –1000 J/K
How to determine the entropy of the surrounding
- Change in entropy of system (ΔSₛᵧₛ) = –1000 J/K
- Change in entropy of surrounding (ΔSₛᵤᵣ) =?
ΔSsys = –ΔSsur
–1000 = –ΔSsur
ΔSₛᵤᵣ = 1000 J/K
