MCQ
The value of $\Delta S$ for freezing of $10\,g$ of $H_2O(l)$ (enthalpy of fusion is $80 \, cal/g$) at $0\,^oC$ and $1\, atm$ pressure is.......$J/K$
  • A
    $12.25$
  • B
    $-0.244 $
  • C
    $-2.93$
  • $-12.25 $

Answer

Correct option: D.
$-12.25 $
d
$\Delta S_{\text {freezing }}=-\frac{\Delta H_{\text {fusion }}}{T}$

$\Delta S=-\frac{80 \times 10}{273}$

${=-2.93\, \mathrm{Cal} / \mathrm{K}}$

${=-12.25\, \mathrm{J} / \mathrm{K}}$
