During melting of ice, its entropy
(a) increases (b) decreases
(c) remains same (d) cannot say

Answers

Answered by priyadarshan9th

Answer:

Entropy is a measure of diffusion or randomness of the system. ... Since the mobility of molecules i.e. diffusion/ randomness in liquid (molten) form is higher than solid they have higher entropy. Thereby, upon melting of ice entropy increases as: H2O(s)→H2O(l) Option B is the correct answer.

A uniform sphere is supplied heat electrically at the centre at a constant rate. In the steady state, steady temperatures are established at all radial locations r, heat flows outwards radial and is ultimately radiated out by the outer surface isotropically. In this steady state, the temperature gradient varies with radial distance r according to (a) r⁻¹ (b) r⁻² (c) r⁻³ (d) r⁻³/²...
