The standard molar entropy of liquid water at 273.15 K is 65 J k-1 mol-1, and that of ice at the same temperature is 43 J K-1 mol-1. Calculate the change in chemical potential of liquid water and ice when the temperature is decreased by 1.5 K. Giving your reasons, explain which phase is thermodynamically more stable at the new temperature.
