Entropy in isothermal expansion

AI Thread Summary
In the discussion on entropy during isothermal expansion, the parameters for air are defined with initial conditions of volume, pressure, and temperature. The final pressure after expansion is noted, and calculations for temperature, mass, final volume, latent heat, and heat transfer are provided. The main focus is on calculating entropy (s) for both initial and final states, with clarification that it is possible to find both s1 and s2 using the appropriate formulas. The user successfully determined s2 by adjusting the pressure in the formula, while also noting the reference conditions for normal pressure and temperature. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding entropy changes in thermodynamic processes.

Air:
V1= 0,1 m3
P1= 1 MPa
T1= 20 C
After isothermal expansion P2= 0,1 MPa

I had to find T2, M, V2, L, Q and found all those (T2=20 C; M=1,1927 kg; V2=1 m3; L=Q=230258 J) but need s (enthropy) for creating illustration in T-s
I can`t find how it`s possible to calculate s1 and s2, is it possible at all or is it possible to find only delta s?

I already found the solution. :)

S2 with same formula, just had to change P with P2 (if finding S1, then P=P1), Cp was 1000, P0 is normal pressure (760 mm HG), T0 is normal temperature (273,15 K)
