Which law can be expressed using the statement "to have the lowest possible entropy, a crystal should be perfect and at absolute zero"? A. This is not a law of thermodynamics. B. This is the third law of thermodynamics. C. This is the second law of thermodynamics. D. This is the first law of thermodynamics.
@ganeshie8 Please help me!
@Jesstho.-.
@Abhisar I really need help!
So, what do you think? @vera_ewing
I have no idea...what do you think??
The second law of thermodynamics states that in a natural thermodynamic process, there is an increase in the sum of the entropies of the participating systems. The second law is an empirical finding that has been accepted as an axiom of thermodynamic theory.
So what would the answer be?
The law defines the concept of thermodynamic entropy for a thermodynamic system in its own state of internal thermodynamic equilibrium. It considers a process in which that state changes, with increases in entropy due to dissipation of energy and to dispersal of matter and energy.
Any ideas, yet?
Hmm...so is it A, B, C, or D? I still don't know....
@Jesstho.-.
@ganeshie8 Helppp!
@JFraser Please help!!!
There are only 3 laws of thermodynamics. 1) Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can be transfers. 2) Any spontaneous reaction will increase the entropy of the universe. 3) A perfect crystaline substance at 0 K has an entropy of zero <-- your answer.
@Jesstho.-. STOP plagiarism. YOU did it again. Imma report you.
I'm reporting you for giving out answers.
