One mole of ice at 273 k or one mole of water at the same temperature which one have greater entropy and why?
The water has more entropy, because its atomic structure is less ordered than the atomic structure of the ice.
Which system has lower entropy 50ml of ice or 50 ml of water?
50ml of ice
Which of the following has the highest entropy Water Ice Water solution or Water vapor?
water vapor
Which list of phases of H2O is arranged in order of increasing entropy?
ice, liquid water, and steam
Which has higher denesity ice or water?
Ice has a LOWER density than water as ice FLOATS in water!!!!!!! Upon freezing water to form ice, expansion occurs thus more volume and surface area but the same weight.
What describes the phases of water Water expands as it changes from a solid to a liquid?
the entropy of water is higher than the entropy of ice.
When water becomes ice the entropy decreases does this contradict the second law?
No, because the entropy of the surroundings must increase more than the decrease in the water->ice transition, thus the net change in the entropy of the universe is positive, consistent with the second law.
One mole of ice at 273 k or one mole of water at the same temperature which one have greater entropy and why?
The water has more entropy, because its atomic structure is less ordered than the atomic structure of the ice.
What has the greatest entropy per mole ice water or steam?
Steam will have the greatest entropy
How does matter change when an Ice cube is melting?
The entropy increases. The runny water is more disordered than the rigid ice-cube and entropy is like disorder so there is more entropy too. Another way of looking at it is this. The ice melts because it is in a warmer room. It is natural for all things in a room to get to the same temperature. Things which happen to get back to the natural state are usually things where entropy increases.
Will a chunk of ice float higher than an ice cube?
A chunk of ice will float higher in water than an ice cube only if the ice chunk is larger than the ice cube.
Which system has lower entropy 50ml of ice or 50 ml of water?
50ml of ice
Which of the following has the highest entropy Water Ice Water solution or Water vapor?
water vapor
Which has greater entropy liquid water at 0 degrees C or ice at 0 degrees C?
The water. This is because it has greater positional disorder; if you know the position of one molecule you can say much less about the positions of all the others than you can in an ice crystal. On the other hand, if we are maintaining the system at constant temperature and pressure, then at 0C the contribution to the entropy of the universe because of the water is the same whether it is liquid or solid. This is because when water freezes it give out a latent heat, increasing the entropy of its surroundings, which at 0C exactly cancels the ice's lower entropy.
Why do ice cubes melt faster in water than in ice?
Water has a higher temperature in ice causing it to melt faster.
What is the only substance that has a greater density as a liquid than a solid?
Water has higher density than ice. That is why ice floats on water.
If the crushed ice was in water will it melt faster than crushed ice by itself in a cup?
Yes, crushed ice will melt faster in a cup of water than in a cup by itself. This is because the water is a higher temperature than the ice.
