An 800-g block of ice at 0.00°C is resting in a large bath of water at 0.00°C insulated from the environment. After an entropy change of this system of 600 J/K, how much ice remains unmelted? The latent heat of fusion of water is 333 J/g.

    Unmeltedd ice = 308.109 g

    Explanation:

    Gibbs Free energy:

    A systems Gibbs Free Energy is defined as the free energy of the product of the absolute temperature and the entropy change less than the enthalpy change.

    Therefore, G = ΔH-TΔS

    where G is Gibbs Free Energy

    ΔH is enthalpy change

    T is absolute temperature

    ΔS is entropy change

    Here since there is a phase change, therefore G will be 0.

    ∴ΔH = TΔS

    Given: Temperature, T = 0°C = 273 K

    Entropy change,ΔS = 600 J/K

    Latent heat of fusion of water = 333 J/g

    ∴ΔH = TΔS

    ∴ΔH = 273 x 600

    = 163800 J

    So this is the amount of enthalpy that will be used into melting of ice.

    ∴ΔH = mass of ice melted x latent heat of fusion of water

    Mass of ice melted = ΔH / latent heat of fusion of water

    = 163800 / 333

    = 491.891 g

    This is the mass of ice melted.

    And initial amount of ice is 800 g

    Amount of ice left after melting = Initial amount of ice - amount of ice melted

    = 800-491.891

    = 308.109 g

    Amount of ice remained after melting = 308.109 g
