The latent heat of vaporization of water is given approximately by Lv =
-2,400TC + 2,500,000, where Tc is the temperature in Celsius of the water,
and L is in J/kg. A puddle of 2.8 kg of water at temperature 13°C
evaporates in a room having temperature 27°C. Calculate the change in
entropy of the universe during this process, assuming the water and room
don't change temperature significantly during the evaporation process.
