Answer

$\Delta S = -644.5 J/K$

Work Step by Step

In this isothermal process, the heat energy is $Q = −mL_v $ $Q = −(0.130 kg)(20.9×10^3 J/kg) $ $Q = −2717 J $ The entropy of this non isolated system is $\Delta S = \frac{Q}{T} $ The boiling point of helium is 4.216 K $\Delta S = \frac{−2717 J }{4.216 K} $ $\Delta S = -644.5 J/K$
