Why doesn’t a broken wineglass spontaneously fix itself, from a thermodynamic point of view?

The answer is the option<span> 3.) Fixing a wineglass requires a large decrease in entropy.



Entropy is a termodynamical variable and it is defined as the degree of disorder of the system.



As per the second law of thermodynamics the spontaneous changes only occur when the entropy increases.



</span>Fixing the broken glasses by itself meant to decrease the entropy spontaneusly which violate the principle or second law of thermodynamics. So, it is not possible.

Radioactive isotopes eventually decay, or disintegrate, to harmless materials. Some isotopes decay in hours or even minutes, but others decay very slowly. Strontium-90 and cesium-137 have half-lives of about 30 years (half the radioactivity will decay in 30 years). <u>Plutonium-239 has a half-life of 24,000 years.</u>

<h3>What is radioactive decay? </h3>

Radioactive decay is the emission of energy in the form of ionizing radiation. The ionizing radiation that is emitted can include alpha particles, beta particles and/or gamma rays. Radioactive decay occurs in unbalanced atoms called radionuclides.

Elements in the periodic table can take on several forms. Some of these forms are stable; other forms are unstable. Typically, the most stable form of an element is the most common in nature. However, all elements have an unstable form. Unstable forms emit ionizing radiation and are radioactive. There are some elements with no stable form that are always radioactive, such as uranium. Elements that emit ionizing radiation are called radionuclides.
