The isotope U-235 is important because under certain conditions it can readily be split, yielding a lot of energy. It is therefore said to be 'fissile' and we use the expression 'nuclear fission'. Meanwhile, like all radioactive isotopes, they decay.
Answer:
The change in entropy is -1083.112 joules per kilogram-Kelvin.
Explanation:
If the water is cooled reversibly with no phase changes, then there is no entropy generation during the entire process. By the Second Law of Thermodynamics, we represent the change of entropy (
), in joules per gram-Kelvin, by the following model:

(1)
Where:
- Mass, in kilograms.
- Specific heat of water, in joules per kilogram-Kelvin.
,
- Initial and final temperatures of water, in Kelvin.
If we know that
,
,
and
, then the change in entropy for the entire process is:


The change in entropy is -1083.112 joules per kilogram-Kelvin.
