Why Is Entropy Of Water Is Higher Than That Of Ice? [Solved]

At all temperatures, the entropy of water molecules (the system) decreases upon freezing because water molecules are more ordered in the crystalline state than in the liquid. Water molecules have more rotational and translational freedom in liquid than in the solid. So ΔSsys always pushes ice to water.

What is entropy? - Jeff Phillips

There’s a concept that’s crucial to chemistry and physics. It helps explain why physical processes go one way and not the other: …
