Chapter 21, Problem 12SP
Imagine a flexible chamber containing an ideal gas. Heat is allowed to enter the chamber, which is kept at a constant temperature of 30.0 °C while it is expanded by the gas, doubling in volume. Suppose 100 J of work is done by the gas. Determine the change in its entropy. [Hint: What do we know about the change in internal energy?]

Consider the adiabatic free expansion of n moles of an ideal gas from volume V₁ to volume V2,
where V₂ > V₁. [Hint: check lecture 19, chapter 5.6, process number 5. Note that such a process
happens quasi-instantaneously, thus, it is irreversible.]
(1) Calculate the change in entropy of the gas.
(2) Calculate the change in entropy of the environment.
(3) Evaluate the total change in entropy (AS = ASgas + ASenv.) for 1 mole, with V₂ = 2V/₁.
Exactly 500 grams of ice are melted at a temperature of 32°F. (Lice = 333 J/g.)
What is the change in entropy (in J/K)?
A system of ideal gas at 22°C undergoes an ischoric process with an internal energy decrease of 4.80 x 10' J to afinal temperature of 10°C. What is the approximate change in entropy?[Hint: use the average temperature]
