- Some water is placed in a coffee-cup calorimeter. When 1.0 g of an ionic solid is added, the temperature of the solution increases from 21.5C to 24.2C as the solid dissolves. For the dissolving process, what are the signs for Ssys, Ssurr, and Suniv?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_forwardFor each process, tell whether the entropy change of the system is positive or negative. Water vapor (the system) deposits as ice crystals on a cold windowpane. A can of carbonated beverage loses its fizz. (Consider the beverage but not the can as the system. What happens to the entropy of the dissolved gas?) A glassblower heats glass (the system) to its softening temperature.arrow_forward
- For each process, tell whether the entropy change of the system is positive or negative, (a) A glassblower heats glass (the system) to its softening temperature, (b) A teaspoon of sugar dissolves in a cup of coffee. (The system consists of both sugar and coffee.) (c) Calcium carbonate precipitates out of water in a cave to form stalactites and stalagmites. (Consider only the calcium carbonate to be the system.)arrow_forwardIdentify each of the processes listed as spontaneous or nons-pontaneous. For each nonspontaneous process, describe the corresponding spontaneous process in the opposite direction. (a) A group of cheerleaders builds a human pyramid. (b) Table salt dissolves in water. (c) A cup of cold coffee in a room becomes steaming hot. (d) Water molecules in the air are converted to hydrogen and oxygen gases.

- For each pair of items, tell which has the higher entropy and explain why. (a) Item 1, a sample of solid CO2 at -78°C, or item 2, CO2 vapor at 0°C (b) Item I, solid sugar, or item 2, the same sugar dissolved in a cup of tea (c) Item 1, a 100-mL sample of pure water and a 100-mL sample of pure alcohol, or item 2, the same samples of water and alcohol after they have been poured together and stirredarrow_forwardThrough photosynthesis, plants build molecules of sugar containing several carbon atoms from carbon dioxide. In the process, entropy is decreased. The reaction of CO2with formic acid to form oxalic acid provides a simple example of a reaction in which the number of carbon atoms in a compound increases: CO2(aq)+HCOOH(aq)H2C2O4(aq) (a) Calculate the standard entropy change for this reaction and discuss the sign of S . (b) How do plants carry out reactions that increase the number of carbon atoms in a sugar, given the changes in entropy for reactions like this?arrow_forwardThermodynamics provides a way to interpret everyday occurrences. If you live in northern climates, one common experience is that during early winter, snow falls but then melts when it hits the ground. Both the formation and the melting happen spontaneously. How can thermodynamics explain both of these seemingly opposed events?arrow_forward
