One mole of an ideal gas expands isothermally and reversibly from an initial volume VV to a final volume 2V2V at a constant temperature of 300K300\,\text{K}. What is the change in entropy of the gas? (Given: Universal gas constant R=8.314J/mol KR = 8.314\,\text{J/mol K})

Q2easy

A 100g100\,\text{g} block of ice at 0C0^\circ C melts completely to water at 0C0^\circ C. If the latent heat of fusion of ice is 334J/g334\,\text{J/g}, what is the change in entropy of the ice during this process?

Q6medium

Calculate the change in entropy when 2moles2\,\text{moles} of an ideal monatomic gas are heated from 300K300\,\text{K} to 400K400\,\text{K} at constant volume. (Given: R=8.314J/mol KR = 8.314\,\text{J/mol K}, Cv=32RC_v = \frac{3}{2}R for a monatomic gas)
