Melting gold bars is the process that involves an increase in entropy
1. A thermodynamic quantity that is the difference between the internal energy of a system and the product of itsabsolute temperature and entropy; the capacity of a system to do work, as in an exothermic chemical reaction.<span>2. </span>A thermodynamic quantity that is the difference between the enthalpy and the product of the absolute temperatureand entropy of a system. Also called <span>Gibbs free energy</span>.
The heat released by the water when it cools down by a temperature difference AT
is Q = mC,AT
where
m=432 g is the mass of the water
C, = 4.18J/gºC
is the specific heat capacity of water
AT = 71°C -18°C = 530
is the decrease of temperature of the water
Plugging the numbers into the equation, we find
Q = (4329)(4.18J/9°C)(53°C) = 9.57. 104J
and this is the amount of heat released by the water.
It is true yes :) happy to help
