Question

Calculate the change of entropy of 2 kg of air when its temperature increases from 400 K to 500 K at constant pressure equal to 300 kPa.

Answer 1

Answer:

0.45516

Explanation:

ENTROPY : Entropy is a measure of molecular disorder it is denoted by S. Entropy is also measured in terms of thermal energy and temperature it is equal to thermal energy per unit temperature.

from the table S₁=1.99194 KJ/kg.k (at 400k)

from the table S₂=2.21952 KJ/kg.k (at 500k)

so total entropy change is given by =m (S₂-S₁)

=2(2.21952-1.99194)

=0.45516
