Answer:

0.25 J/K

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data in given question

heat (Q) = 100 J

temperature (T) = 400 K

to find out

the change in entropy of the given system

Solution

we use the entropy change equation here i.e

ΔS = ΔQ / T ...................a

Now we put the value of heat (Q) and Temperature (T) in equation a

ΔS is the entropy change, Q is heat and T is the temperature,

so that

ΔS = 100/400 J/K

ΔS = 0.25 J/K
