Entropy for phase transition at constant pressure -

\Delta S= \frac{\Delta H_{Transition}}{T}

- wherein

Transition \RightarrowFusion, Vaporisition, Sublimation

\Delta H\RightarrowEnthalpy

\Delta E\RightarrowInternal Energy

T\RightarrowTransitional temperature

 

 Entropy change = \frac{\Delta H}{T}

= \frac{30\times 10^{3} J/mdi-k}{300}

 = 100 J mol^{-1}K^{-1}
