Do problem 7-3 from the textbook. Since many of you do not have the textbook with you, it is
given here. (Hint: Do not believe all the answers in the back of the book.)
Calculate the change in the entropy of the universe as a result of each of the following processes:
(a) A copper block of mass 0.4 kg and heat capacity 150 J/K at 100ºC is placed in a lake at 10ºC.
(b) The same block at 10ºC is dropped from a height of 100 m into the lake.
(c) Two similar blocks at 100ºC and 10ºC are joined together. (Hint: See problem 7-8, or today’s
lecture notes.
(d) One kilomole of a gas at 0ºC is expanded reversibly and isothermally to twice its initial
volume.
(e) One kilomole of a gas at 0ºC is expanded reversibly and adiabatically to twice its initial
volume.

(d) Since the process is reversible,
Suniverse = 0
For the isothermal process, dU = 0, so đQ = đW = PdV.
