2. (20 marks) At a pressure of 1 atm, the equilibrium melting temperature of copper is 1356 K. At this temperature, the heat of melting of copper AH melting, copper 11,300 J/mol. If one (1.0) mole of super- cooled liquid copper solidifies at 1073 K, prove that this solidification process at 1073 K is spontaneous and irreversible. The constant pressure heat capacity (C) of solid copper is (95.23+0.0251) J/(mol-K) and that of liquid copper is 131.31 J/(mol-K), where Tis temperature in K
