A 40 kg metal block (Cp = 0.5 kJ/(kg.K)) at T = 450oC is quenched in 150 kg oil (Cp = 2.5 kJ/(kg. K)) at T = 25oC. If the combined (metal block and oil) system is fully isolated from its surroundings, then the net change in the entropy (in kJ/K) of the combined system is ________________.
Answer: 9.7 to 9.9
