Answer:

Energy cannot be changed from one form to another without a loss of usable energy

Explanation:

Second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy or the randomness of the system remains constant over time.  It also states that the net entropy will remain the same or it will increase.

Entropy of a system is given by heat absorbed divided by temperature. It is given by :

\Delta S=\dfrac{\Delta Q}{T}

So, the correct option is (A) "Energy cannot be changed from one form to another without a loss of usable energy".

Featured snippet from the web
Work is the force on the object as it changes a distance. Interestingly, as work is done on an object, potential energy can be stored in that object. For example, if you carry a load up the stairs. Now that load will have potential energy that can be transformed into kinetic energy and so on

What is the mass amount of a Proton and a Neutron?
zysi [14]

The masses amount of a proton and neutron are 1.0087 and 1.0073 amu respectively.

<h3>What is a Proton?</h3>

This is defined as  sub atomic particle which is positively charged and is present in the nucleus while the neutron is also a particle present in the nucleus but has a neutral charge.

Electrons on the other hand are found outside the nucleus and are negatively charged. It is the sub atomic particle which is actively involved in a chemical reaction.

The masses of neutron and proton are 1.0087 and 1.0073 amu respectively and was discovered by scientists thereby making it the most appropriate choice.
