Answer:

Good answer below, just adding on

Explanation:

Runoff of chemical products, animal waste, and especially human waste products such as different types of trash like scrap metals and plastic greatly increase water pollution. Additionally, oil leaks and spills can also lead to severe water pollution. As a general statement I'd say that human activities that are not monitored and are either directly dumped into water ways or are caught in run off cause water pollution.

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is entropy change of the surrounding plus the entropy change of the system must be positive.

Explanation:

The term entropy is a state function.Entropy can be defined as the disorder or randomness of the molecules in a system.

 A spontaneous reaction is a type of reaction which deals with the release of free energy.The change of free energy in case of spontaneous reaction is always negative.

 According to the second law of thermodynamics a spontaneous reaction will occur in a system if the total entropy of both  system and surrounding increases during the reaction.

What is thermal energy?
timurjin [86]
Thermal energy is THE MEASURE OF TEMPERATURE IN A SYSTEM.
Thermal energy refers to the internal energy that is present in a system as a result of its temperature. The motion of the particles of an object depends on the temperature of the object and the higher the temperature, the faster the movement of the particles. The reverse is also true.
