The heat of fusion AH, of ethyl acetate (C4H802) is 10.5 kinol. Calculate the change in entropy as when 398. g of ethy, acetate freezes at 84.0 C. Be sure your answer contains a unit symbol and the correct number of significant digits

The entropy change of the ethyl acetate is 133. J/K

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

Given mass of ethyl acetate = 398 g

Molar mass of ethyl acetate = 88.11 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

To calculate the entropy change for different phase at same temperature, we use the equation:

where,  

= Entropy change  = ?

n = moles of ethyl acetate = 4.52 moles

= enthalpy of fusion = 10.5 kJ/mol = 10500 J/mol   (Conversion factor:  1 kJ = 1000 J)

T = temperature of the system =

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the entropy change of the ethyl acetate is 133. J/K
