State pure liquid water can be supercooled to temperatures

Reference no: EM13170785

Pure liquid water can be supercooled to temperatures below its freezing point. Consider 10 kg of water cooled as a liquid to -10 Celsius. Let's now add a small crystal of ice (whose mass is negligible) as a "seed" the subcooled liquid causing a change of state to the ice at 0 Celsius. If the process occurs adiabatically and at constant (atmospheric) pressure (a) what is the mass of water that solidifies and (b) what is the change in entropy of the system?
