Entropy Of Fusion
The increase in
entropy
when
melting
a substance is called the
Entropy of fusion
. This is always positive since the
degree of disorder
increases in the
transition
from an organized
crystalline
solid
to the disorganized structure of a
liquid
. It is denoted as Δ
fus
S and normally expressed in
J
/
mol
·
K
A natural process such as a
phase change
will occur when the associated change in the
Gibbs free energy
is negative. It follows that the entropy of fusion is related to the
melting point
and the
heat of fusion
:
\Delta_{fus} H = T_{fus} \times \Delta_{fus} S
