Q.
Calculate the change in entropy when two gram atoms of aluminium is heated from 25°C to 600°C. The atomic heat capacity of aluminium is given by Cp=5.006+0.0026Tcal/deg.
The process takes place at constant pressure. Hence, ΔQ=CpΔT
and ΔS=∫T1T2TnCpdT=2∫298873(T5.006+0.0026)dT =2[5.006ln298873+0.0026(873−298)] =2[5.381+1.495]=13.75cal/deg or 13.75eu
