Entropy and enthalpy for triggering cutaneous erythema

The molar entropy (ΔS) and molar enthalpy (ΔH) for the denaturation event that triggers cutaneous erythema was determined to be ΔS = 190 J/(mole K) and ΔH = 146.9 × 103 J/mole. The experiment involved placing heated water against the skin of the forearm, for a range of temperatures and exposure time...
