How to Calculate and Solve for Entropy of Water | Enthalpy

Last Updated on June 28, 2022

The entropy of water is illustrated by the image below.

To compute for entropy of water, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Constant Pressure (Cpw) and Temprature (T).

The formula for calculating entropy of water:

Sp = Cpw ln(T / 273)

Where:

Sp = Entropy of Water
Cpw = Constant Pressure
T = Temprature

Let’s solve an example;
Find the entropy of water when the constant pressure is 40 and the temperature is 10.

This implies that;

Cpw = Constant Pressure = 40
T = Temprature = 10

Sp = Cpw ln(T / 273)
Sp = 40 x ln(10 / 273)
Sp = 40 x ln(0.0366)
Sp = 40 x -3.306
Sp = -132.27

Therefore, the entropy of water is -132.27 J/K.
