The enthalpy change for the transition of liquid water to steam at $100\,^oC$ is $40.8\, kJ\, mol^{-1}$. The entropy change for this process is .... $J\, K^{-1}\, mol^{-1}$.

Ice at $-5^{\circ} C$ is heated to become vapor with a temperature of $110^{\circ} C$ at atmospheric pressure. The entropy change associated with this process can be obtained from:

$A$ container is divided into two compartments by a removable partition as shown below:
In the first compartment,$n_{1}$ moles of ideal gas $He$ is present in a volume $V_{1}$. In the second compartment,$n_{2}$ moles of ideal gas $Ne$ is present in a volume $V_{2}$. The temperature and pressure in both the compartments are $T$ and $p$,respectively. Assuming $R$ is the gas constant,the total change in entropy upon removing the partition when the gases mix irreversibly is:
