Question

The change in entropy for the surroundings in a situation where heat flows from a hotter system to a cooler surrounding is: ________

a. Greater than zero
b. Less than zero
c. Equal to zero
d. Impossible to predict

Answer 1

Option a (Greater than zero) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

• The entropy transition can sometimes be due to something like the reconfiguration of atom or molecule through one sequence to the next.
• In the substances, there would be a corresponding increase throughout entropy mostly during response unless the compounds are still very much abnormal compared with the reaction mixture.

Some other three choices don't apply to either the situations in question. And the correct approach will be Options A.

Answer 2

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The change in entropy for the surroundings in a situation where heat flows from a hotter system to a cooler surrounding is Greater than Zero.

Here the randomness of the molecules increase as the temperature of the surrounding increases.( it absorbs heat from the system).
