Is the measure of the amount of disorder in a system?
disorder
What is randomness or chaos in chemistry?
The amount of disorder/randomness of a system is called the entropy of the system.
The amount of disorder in a system is measured by its?
Entropy. The going form well ordered systems to disordered systems.
What is the connection between spontaneous reactions and free energy?
A reaction occurs spontaneously when free energy is negative, ie the disorder of the system is increasing
Why is the transfer of energy in an ecosystem referred to as energy flow not energy cycling?
Entropy. To "cycle" the energy would need to be reused, in reality the energy flows in from the outside and flows back out. (If the system were energy blocked, then all the energy would convert to heat and thus be useless.)
What is the Meaning of Entrophy?
Entropy is a measure of the disorder or randomness in a system. In thermodynamics, it is a state function that quantifies the amount of energy in a system that is unavailable to do work. As entropy increases, the amount of useful energy available decreases, leading to a more disordered state in the system.
Is the measure of the amount of disorder in a system?
disorder
What measures the amount of disorder in a system?
system
The amount of decay or disorder in a system?
entropy
Is the measure of the amount of disorder in a system.?
This is called entropy.
The amount of power derived from a device or system is its?
That amount is always less than the energy you put into the system. Divide the amount of useful energy you get from a system by the amount of energy you put into it, and you find the system's 'efficiency'.
The amount of decay or disorder in a system is called?
Entropy
Why does entropy do?
A physical quantity that is the measurement of the amount of disorder in a system.
Concept that energy cannot cycle through an ecosystem is best explained by?
This concept is best explained by the second law of thermodynamics. This law deals with the entropy of a system, which is related to the amount of disorder in that system.
Entropy is the measure of the amount of disorder in a system?
true
How is Gibbs Free energy evaluated?
Enthalpy (H) or thermal energy content of the system entropy (S) of the degree of disorder of a system.
What is a useful amount of energy you get from a system?
It is energy officenty
