Question:

Predict whether each of the following processes results in an increase in entropy in the system. (Define reactants and products as the system.)
(a) Water vapor condenses as dew (liquid water) at 0°C and 1 atm pressure.
(b) An exothermic reaction of Al(s) and Br2(ℓ) forms Al2Br6(s).
(c) The endothermic decomposition of solid CaCO3 at 800°C to produce an equilibrium mixture containing solid CaCO3, solid CaO, and gaseous CO2.
(d) One mol of AgCl(s) decomposes, forming 1.0 mole of Ag(s) and 0.5 mol Cl2(g).
