Quizplus · Accepted Answer

At 1 atm, when liquid water is heated above 100°C, it undergoes a phase transition from liquid to gas. This process requires the absorption of heat (endothermic process), leading to an increase in the entropy of the system as the water molecules move from a more ordered (liquid) state to a less ordered (gaseous) state. Additionally, the surroundings lose some entropy because they provide the heat. However, the increase in entropy of the system (water) is greater than the decrease in entropy of the surroundings, leading to an overall increase in the universe's entropy ($\Delta S_{univ} > 0$).
