(d) Water molecules in the air are converted to hydrogen and oxygen gases. (e) A person peels an orange, and you smell it from across the room.arrow_forwardOne statement of the second law of thermodynamics is that heat cannot be turned completely into work. Another is that the entropy of the universe always increases. How are these two statements related?arrow_forwardCalculate Ssurr for the following reactions at 25C and 1 atm. a.
