Answer:  1.  Water freezing : \Delta S is -ve.

2. Water evaporating : \Delta S is +ve.

3. Crystalline urea dissolving : \Delta S is +ve.

4. Assembly of the plasma membrane from individual lipids: \Delta S is -ve.

5.  Assembly of a protein from individual amino acids: \Delta S is -ve.

Explanation:

Entropy is defined as the measurement of degree of randomness in a system.

It is represented by symbol S and we can only measure a change in entropy which is given by \Delta S.

If there is decrease in randomness , the sign for \Delta S is -ve and If there is increase in randomness , the sign for \Delta S is +ve.

1.  Water freezing: Entropy decreases as we move from liquid state to  to solid state and thus \Delta S is -ve.

2. Water evaporating : Entropy increases as we move from liquid state to  gaseous state and thus \Delta S is +ve.

3. Crystalline urea dissolving : The molecules convert from solid and ordered state to aqueous phase and random state. Thus the entropy increases and thus \Delta S is +ve.

4. Assembly of the plasma membrane from individual lipids:  random lipids are associating to form a single large polymer and thus entropy decreases and thus \Delta S is -ve.

5. Assembly of a protein from individual amino acids: random amino acids are associating to form a single large polymer and thus entropy decreases and thus \Delta S is -ve.

Verizon [17]
The answer is iii) decreasing the pressure of the system. When the pressure is decreased, the equilibrium will shift to the right because it has 12 moles of gas which is greater than the number of moles of gas on the left side, which is 6 moles. Equilibrium shifting to the side that exerts greater pressure is favored to offset the decrease in pressure.

Your teacher asks you to design an experiment that shows how plants respond to changes in their environment. You have two identi
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

1.  Make observations.

Determine whether the plant grown under the white light bulb or the plant grown under the red light bulb grew better.

Observations are anything we notice which lead to a question in our mind.

2. Ask a question.

Do plants grow as well under a different color of light?

As this is a question being asked, hence it will be the question for the scientific method of research.

3. Test the hypothesis.

Put one plant under a white light bulb, and  place the other plant under a red light bulb.  Measure the growth of the two plants.

To test the hypothesis, experiments are performed. This is the experiment.

4. Analyze the results, and make a conclusion.

Plants grow well under sunlight or a light bulb  with a hot, white light.

After the experiments, the results are compiled and a conclusion is drawn.

5. Test or modify.

If you observe no change, repeat the experiment with different colors of light bulbs. If there is a change, repeat the experiment for one or two more trials to ensure that the color of the light bulb contributes to the change.

If our hypothesis does not come out to be true, then another hypothesis can be generated and tests be done for it.
