As learnt in

Entropy for solid and liquid -

When heat is given to a substance to change its state at constant temperature.

- wherein

Delta S= frac{mL}{T}

L= Latent , Heat

T in kelvin

 

 \Delta S = \frac{\Delta Q}{T} = \frac{mL}{T}

          = \frac{2000\times 80}{273}\ cal/K

          = 586\ cal/K
