    Entropy
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on how the ratio of protons and electrons influences entropy in chemical reactions. It is noted that ozone (O3) has higher entropy than oxygen (O2) due to its greater number of atoms, allowing for more energy dispersion. In contrast, while two chlorine atoms (2Cl) are considered to have higher entropy than Cl2 because they exist as separate particles, the overall consensus is that the arrangement of particles is crucial for determining entropy. The conversation also touches on the comparison between liquid and aqueous sulfuric acid (H2SO4), concluding that the aqueous form has higher entropy due to increased particle arrangements. Overall, the relationship between particle arrangement and entropy is emphasized throughout the discussion.

O3-O2 well i think in O3 Because the amount of protons and electrons is more High and we have more options to Disperse the energy so the entropy become more High yes?

and here: 2Cl-Cl2 the entropy is Equal Because the amount of materials is Equal both are 2.

tell me if i Right.

thanks.

Yes, O3 would have a higher entropy because the molecule contains more atoms.
I think that 2Cl would have a higher entropy because it is two separate particles, while Cl2 is one particle. It has the potential to be more random/disorganized, which is ultimately what entropy measures.
 
OK i Understand you'r answer and is now become more clear to Understand.

but i am not so Understand if i have tow Materials like:H2SO4(l)-H2SO4(aq) where will be more entropy?

thanks.
 
Okay, think about it like this. Entropy can be seen as the total amount of arrangments of particles. Now, obviously, you can mix up 5 particles more than you can mix up 2, correct? So, if you ask yourself what the differences are between a liquid and an aqueous solution, I'm sure that you can figure it out.
 
well so in aqueous there will be more Entropy .THANKS.
 

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
