It is possible, with care, to cool water below its freezing point without causing the water to freeze. This is referred to as supercooling. Suppose that you did this, and had 129.0 grams of supercooled water at -8.50deg C in a perfectly insulated container. Now suppose that the water suddenly and spontaneously changes to a mixture of ice and water (it partially freezes). Assume a constant volume, a constant pressure of 1 atm, and no loss or gain of heat to or from the surroundings. How much of the water freezes? Enter your answer as a mass in grams with two decimal places. The heat of fusion of water is 333 J/g. Assume that the specific heat of H2O(l) is constant at 4.184 JK-1g-1.
Answer is 13.78g
Part 2)
What is the entropy change for the process described in the previous question? Enter your answer in J/K.
PLEASE help me!!! I have no idea what I keep doing wrong. Could you please show me how to do this!
Thank You!!!
