Entropy of the system consisting of the two blocks

Reference no: EM13677332

Two large blocks are momentarily placed in contact. Block A has temperature 567 K and transfers 849 J of heat energy to block B, which has temperature 288 K. The temperatures of the blocks are unchanged. What is the change in entropy of the system consisting of the two blocks?
