Problem 2.143

Find the entropy increment of an aluminum bar of mass \(m=3.0 \mathrm{~kg}\) on its heating from the temperature \(T_{1}=300 \mathrm{~K}\) up to \(T_{2}=600 \mathrm{~K}\) if in this temperature interval the specific heat capacity of aluminum varies as \(c=a+b T,\) where \(a=0.77 \mathrm{~J} /(\mathrm{g} \cdot \mathrm{K})\) \(b=0.46 \mathrm{~mJ} /\left(\mathrm{g} \cdot \mathrm{K}^{2}\right)\)

Reveal Answer
 2.143. ΔS=m[aln⁡(T2/T1)+b(T2−−T1)]=2.0 kJ/K\begin{aligned} &\text { 2.143. } \Delta S=m\left[a \ln \left(T_{2} / T_{1}\right)+b\left(T_{2}-\right.\right.\\ &\left.\left.-T_{1}\right)\right]=2.0 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{K} \end{aligned}
