Chapter 17, Problem 81P(choose chapter or problem)
A 74.6-g ice cube floats in the Arctic Sea. The temperature and pressure of the system and surroundings are at 1 atm and \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Calculate \(\Delta S_{\text {sys }}\), \(\Delta S_{\text {surr }}\) and \(\Delta S_{\text {univ }}\) for the melting of the ice cube. What can you conclude about the nature of the process from the value of \(\Delta S_{\text {univ }}\)? (The molar heat of fusion of water is 6.01 kJ/mol.)

QUESTION:
A 74.6-g ice cube floats in the Arctic Sea. The temperature and pressure of the system and surroundings are at 1 atm and \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Calculate \(\Delta S_{\text {sys }}\), \(\Delta S_{\text {surr }}\) and \(\Delta S_{\text {univ }}\) for the melting of the ice cube. What can you conclude about the nature of the process from the value of \(\Delta S_{\text {univ }}\)? (The molar heat of fusion of water is 6.01 kJ/mol.)
ANSWER:Step 1 of 4
The equation representing the melting of ice cube is as follows:
The molar heat of fusion of water is
