Heat is transferred directly from a heat reservoir at 200 c to another heat reservoir at 5c. if the amount of heat transferred is 100kj, what is the total entropy change as a result of this process? draw a schematic to represent the heat exchange

ΔS=0.148  KJ/K

Explanation:

Given that

Q = 100 KJ

T₁=200°C

T₁=200+273 = 437 K

T₂=5°C

T₂=5 + 273 = 278 K

Reservoir 1 is rejecting heat that is why it taken as negative while the reservoir 2 is gaining the heat that is why it is taken as positive.

So the total change in entropy given as

ΔS=  - Q/T₁ + Q/T₂

ΔS=  - 100/473 + 100/278  KJ/K

ΔS=0.148  KJ/K

answer: enthalpy

explanation:

for a exothermic reaction, the energy is released i.e. the energy of the products is lower than the energy of the reactants.

= enthaply

= energy of products

= energy of reactants

as , thus comes out to be negative. negative value of enthalpy shows that the reaction is exothermic.

the answer is 75.0%.
