Answer

$\Delta S = 71 J/K$

Work Step by Step

The energy when the ice melt is $Q = mL_F$ $Q = (4.50 kg)(334 × 10^3 J/kg)$ $Q = 1.503 \times 10^6 J$ The entropy is $\Delta S_{ice} = \frac{Q}{T} $ $\Delta S_{ice} = \frac{1.503 \times 10^6 J}{273.15 K} $ $\Delta S_{ice} = 5.502 \times 10^3 J/K$ Warm the melted ice to $3.50 ^oC$ $Q = mc \Delta T$ $Q = (4.50 kg)(4190 J/kg.K) (3.50K)$ $Q = 6.599 \times 10^4 J$ $\Delta S_{ice} = mc ln(\frac{T_2}{T_1})$ $\Delta S_{ice} =(4.50 kg)(4190 J/kg.K) ln(\frac{276.65 K}{273.15 K})$ $\Delta S_{ice} = 240.1 J/K$ For the ocean, $\Delta S = \frac{-6.599 \times 10^4 J - 1.503 \times 10^6 J}{276.65 K} $ $\Delta S = -5.671 \times 10^3 J/K $ The entropy increases which is expected as a natural phenomena of the world. The net entropy change is $ΔS = ΔS_{ice} + ΔS_{ocean} $ $\Delta S = (5.502 \times 10^3 J/K + 240.1 J/K) + (-5.671 \times 10^3 J/K)$ $\Delta S = 71 J/K$
