Clarification:

The pertinent information is outlined as follows.

m = 10.0 kg = 10,000 g (since 1 kg = 1000 g)

Starting temperature of block 1, $T_{1} = 100^{o}C$ = (100 + 273) K = 373 K

Starting temperature of block 2, $T_{2} = 0^{o}C$ = (0 + 273) K = 273 K

Therefore, the heat lost by block 1 equals the heat received by block 2

$mC \Delta T = mC \times \Delta T$

$10000 g \times 0.385 \times (T_{f} - 100)^{o}C = 10000 g \times 0.385 \times (0 - T_{f})^{o}C$

$T_{f} - 100^{o}C = 0^{o}C - T_{f}$

$2T_{f} = 100^{o}C$

$T_{f} = 50^{o}C$

It's important to convert the temperature into Kelvin as (50 + 273) K = 323 K.

Additionally, the relationship between enthalpy and temperature change is as follows.

$\Delta H = mC \Delta T$

= $10000 g \times 0.385 J/K g \times 323 K$

= 1243550 J

or, = 1243.5 kJ

Next, determine the entropy change for block 1 as follows.

$\Delta S_{1} = mC ln \frac{T_{f}}{T_{i}}$

= $10000 g \times 0.385 J/K g \times ln \frac{323}{373}$

= $10000 g \times 0.385 J/K g \times -0.143$

= -554.12 J/K

Now, the entropy change for block 2 is as follows.

$\Delta S_{2} = mC ln \frac{T_{f}}{T_{i}}$

= $10000 g \times 0.385 J/K g \times ln \frac{323}{273}$

= $10000 g \times 0.385 J/K g \times 0.168$

= 647.49 J/K

Thus, the total entropy is the sum of the entropy changes of both blocks.

= -554.12 J/K + 647.49 J/K $\Delta S_{total} = \Delta S_{1} + \Delta S_{2}$

= 93.37 J/K

In conclusion, for this reaction, the outcome is 1243.5 kJ and $\Delta S_{total}$ is 93.37 J/K.
