Many air fresheners are in solid form at normal atmospheric pressure and room temperature. However, they undergoes sublimation (changes from solid to gas phase) when heated to release fragrant scents, such as when they are plugged into an electrical outlet. According to the second law of thermodynamics, what must be true about entropy changes in this example? Select the correct answer below: AS sys +AS surr 0 ASsys + ASsurr< 0 ASsys+ASsurr >0 Insufficient information is provided to determine the direction of entropy change.
