Walker, Halliday & Resnick — Entropy and the Second Law of Thermodynamics: Problem 44

44 An 6.0 g ice cube at -10°C is put into a Thermos flask containing 100 cm³ of water at 20°C. By how much has the entropy of the cube–water system changed when equilibrium is reached? The specific heat of ice is 2220 J/kg·K.

📝 Solution Approach

Given: 6.0 g, 10°C, 100 cm, 20°C, 2220 J
