Phase changes

When a system receives an amount of energy q at a constant temperature, T, the entropy increase DS is defined by the following equation. Hence, the magnitude of ΔS for a reversible process such as a phase change is calculated

ΔS=qrevT(18.4.1)

with the temperature in Kelvin. Since entropy changes are much smaller than enthalpy changes, they are usually reported in J K–1 mol–1.

Examples of reversible processes are

Boiling: As temperature is constant, ΔS = ΔHvap/T
Melting: As temperature is constant, ΔS = ΔHfus/T
For many realistic applications, the surroundings are vast in comparison to the system. In such cases, the heat gained or lost by the surroundings as a result of some process represents a very small, nearly infinitesimal, fraction of its total thermal energy. For example, combustion of a fuel in air involves transfer of heat from a system (the fuel and oxygen molecules undergoing reaction) to surroundings that are infinitely more massive (the earth’s atmosphere). As a result, qsurr
