What is the change in entropy of\({\bf{1}}{\bf{.00}}\;{{\bf{m}}{\bf{3}}}\)water at 0°C when it is frozen to ice at 0°C?
Short Answer
The change in entropy is \( - 1.22 \times {106}\;{\rm{J/K}}\).

Question: (I) Calculate the average metabolic rate of a 65-kg person who sleeps 8.0 h, sits at a desk 6.0 h, engages in light activity 6.0 h, watches TV 2.0 h, plays tennis 1.5 h, and runs 0.50 h daily.
Question: (II) Use the conservation of energy to explain why the temperature of a well-insulated gas increases when it is compressed—say, by pushing down on a piston—whereas the temperature decreases when the gas expands. Show your reasoning.
Question: (II) A 1.0-L volume of air initially at 3.5 atm of (gauge) pressure is allowed to expand isothermally until the pressure is 1.0 atm. It is then compressed at constant pressure to its initial volume, and lastly is brought back to its original pressure by heating at constant volume. Draw the process on a PV diagram, including numbers and labels for the axes.
Can mechanical energy ever be transformed completely into heat or internal energy? Can the reverse happen? In each case, if your answer is no, explain why not, if yes, give one or two examples.
Question:(II) Which will improve the efficiency of a Carnot engine more: a 10 °C increase in the high-temperature reservoir, or a 10 °C decrease in the low temperature reservoir? Give detailed results. Can you state a generalization?
