Answer:

5 kilocalories

Explanation:

The heat is a way of energy and it can be measured by calories, but the calories of the heat (thermal calories) are different for the food Calories.

1 food Calories = 1000 thermal calories

5 food Calories = 5000 calories = 5 kilocalories

Thus, when a piece of candy is totally burned, the thermal calorie presented in it will be released as heat.

Which statement describes the relationship between energy and entropy in the universe?
rusak2 [61]

In fact, entropy of an isolated system never decreases (2nd law of thermodynamics), unless some external energy is provided in order to "restore" order in the system and decrease its entropy.

(note that when external energy is added to the system, it is no longer "isolated").


*This is only true if the question is referring to a certain system within the universe. If we are considering the universe itself as the system, then this option is no longer correct, because no external energy can be provided to the universe, and since the universe is an isolated system, its entropy can never decrease. If we are considering the universe itself as the system, none of the options is true.
