Question: ( 1 9 Marks ) A solid block of Silver ( A g ) at an initial temperature of 1 2 C has a mass

(19 Marks) A solid block of Silver (Ag) at an initial temperature of 12C has a mass m1g. It is placed with 53 g of steam initially at 104C in an insulated container. The steam then condenses and becomes liquid water and the closed system reaches thermal equilibrium at a final temperature Tf=92C.
a) By what percentage does the volume of the block of Silver increase?
b) Find the heat of steam Qdeman as it condenses and becomes water at T.
c) Calculate the heat Qig gained by the block of Silver in terms of mds.
d) Deduce the mass of the block of Silver m/s.
e) Calculate the total change in entropy AS of steam: first when its temperature changes from 104C to 100C, then the steam is converted into water, then water goes from 100C to 92C.
f) Calculate the fotal change in entropy S of the whole system then prove that the Second Law of Thermodynamics is not violated.
Given: Ag=1.7510-5C,cAg=0.0565calgC.
Csteamin=0.450calg.C,Lv=539calg,Cnoter=1.0calg.C.
