Argon is the third most common gas found in the air we breathe. The air we breathe has approximately 78% nitrogen and 21 % oxygen. The third more abundant gas in the air we breathe is Argon. It is available in a very small quantity in the air that we breathe.
The percentage of the gas argon is about 0.9% in the air
that we breathe. There are several other gases also present in the air that we
breathe, but they are found mostly in negligible amounts.

Answer:
G<0, spontanteous
H<0, from equation
S>0, gas to solid
Explanation:
The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. Despite its name, silica gel is a solid. It is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of SiO2. Water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, so it acts as a desiccant. Despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided, you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. Predict the signs of ΔG, ΔH, and ΔS.
