Answer: melting gold bars

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from  an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.

1. Condensing water vapor: gaseous phase is being converted to liquid phase, thus the randomness is decreasing.

2. Melting gold bars: Solid phase is being converted to liquid phase, thus the randomness is increasing.

3. filtering grounds from coffee: The randomness is decreasing as some particles are being removed.

4. freezing popsicles: liquid phase is converting to solid phase, thus the randomness is decreasing.

Energy in Devices. An engineer needs to design a device that transforms light energy into sound energy. Describe a design for a
N76 [4]

Answer:

built a special cavity where the electromagnetic quantum states resonate with the natural vibrations of the atoms. In doing so, one cancouple a photon-based oscillator to a mechanical oscillator, controlling the mechanical quantum states with visible light. The result is a prototype of a quantum transducer, a device that converts light energy into mechanical energy (sound energy)

Explanation:

Sound energy is created by vibrating particles of medium that propagates as a wave. So in order to convert light (electromagnetic wave) to sound wave it has to be converted into electric or magnetic signals. Then these signals can be converted into sound waves.

However, if you consider the particle nature of light. It contains momentum and after collision sets the other particles into oscillatory motion but the wavelength of these vibrations is too high to be considered as sound waves.

Why is it better to measure the percent change in mass<br> ratherthan just using the change in mass?
never [62]

Answer: The result is presented in proportion which gives a clearer understanding and accurate result.

Explanation: Percentage change in mass is the proportion of the initial mass of a substance changed after sometime. The results is presented as a percentage making it more accurate and can help to give future reference to weight calculations.

Change is Mass is the mass of a substance left after sometime mostly given in grams. It is not as accurate as percentage change in mass. It is generally better to show results in percentage change in mass as it gives a better understanding of what mass of a substance was lost after a given period or after application of energy like Heat or increased temperature.
