100 grams of molten lead (600°C) is used to make musket balls. If the lead shot is allowed to cool to room temperature (21°C), what is the change in entropy (in J/K) of the lead? (For the specific heat of molten and solid lead use 1.29 J/g×°C; the latent heat of fusion and the melting point of lead are 2.45 × 10^4 J/kg and 327°C.)
