Hi guys, is this right?
A mole of nitrogen is heated at constant external pressure of 1 atm from 25° C to 100° C. The heat capacity of nitrogen is 29.1 J/mol·K.
Calculate ΔSsurr
2. The attempt at a solution
delta_S=Q/T = -1*29.1*75/373=-5.85 J/K
(heat transferred to the system divided by T_surr which we assume to be equal to T_final)
The solution in my lecture notes says -22 J/K, I can't see where that came from.
