Which list of the phases of H2O is arranged in order of increasing entropy?
(1) ice, steam, and liquid water
(2) ice, liquid water, and steam
(3) steam, liquid water, and ice
(4) steam, ice, and liquid water
The answer is (2). The entropy is measured the disorder degree. So the increasing of entropy of the phases are solid, liquid and gas. So the answer is ice, liquid water and steam.
