a statement of the first law of thermodynamics is that a. in a spontaneous process, the entropy of the universe increases b. there is no disorder in a perfect crystal at 0 k. c. the total energy of the universe is constant. d. the totla energy of the universe is constant. e. mass and energy are conserved in all chemical reactions

Please answer all of the questions correctly

Model 1 â Spontaneous Processes Process Description Change in Enthalpy (âH) Change in Entropy (âS) Spontaneous? A Two pure â Homogeneous substances mixture ~ 0 Increasing Yes B Solute on Solute on one side of â both sides of membrane membrane ~ 0 Increasing Yes C Polypeptide â Individual chain amino acids Exothermic (negative) Increasing (positive) Yes D C3 H8 + 5O2 â 3CO2 + 4H2 O Exothermic Increasing Yes E 6CO2 + 6H2 O â C6 H12O6 + 6O2 Endothermic Decreasing No F Glucose â Starch Endothermic Decreasing No G Water â Ice Exothermic Decreasing Below 0 Â°C, yes Above 0 Â°C, no H Cold water (25 Â°C) â Hot water (60 Â°C) Endothermic Increasing Below 60 Â°C, no Above 60 Â°C, yes

Some of the processes in Model 1 are spontaneousâthat is, they will occur without any additional work being done on the system. For example, a solute will diffuse across a membrane until the concentrations of both sides are equal. However, glucose will not spontaneously form from carbon dioxide and water in the atmosphere. The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that a process will be spontaneous when it results in an increase of total entropy in the universe. In other words, either the system or the surroundings must have an increase in entropy, or both. (Please note that the term âspontaneousâ does not imply that the change will happen quickly. Rusting is spontaneous under the right conditions, but it can still occur very slowly.)

13. Predict the change in entropy of the surroundings for an endothermic reaction.
