What happens to entropy when energy is transformed?
There is always an increase in the entropy of the universe.
Which law of energy has never been broken?
The First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics. (1) Total energy remains constant. (2) Entropy increases. Another way to state this is that useful energy is converted into unusable energy.
What does the conservaton suggest about the conservation of energy the conservation of matter and the conservation of momentum?
The Conservation of Matter and the Conservation of Momentum are the consequence of the Conservation of Energy.
Which is a statement of the second law of thermodynamics?
Entropy tends to increase in a system.
What kind of energy is lost in any energy transformation?
Entropy.

What happens when the entropy of the universe increases?
less energy, less life

What is the difference between a reaction that happens spontaneously and a reaction that doesn't?
The difference can be clarified by entropy (the second rule of thermodynamics).The reaction is more spontaneous with higher entropy, for the reactions that occur spontaneously the entropy is higher than for the ones that do not.
What happens to liquid when it releases enough energy called?
Breaks
What happens to entropy when pressure decreases?
When pressure decreases, entropy increases. Increases in entropy correspond to pressure decreases and other irreversible changes in a system. Entropy determines that thermal energy always flows spontaneously from regions of higher temperature to regions of lower temperature, in the form of heat.
What does wasted energy add too?
Wasted energy will increase the amount of useless, or unusable, energy, and reduce the amount of usable energy in the Universe. The wasted energy is related to entropy - one way to express the Second Law of Thermodynamics is to say that there are irreversible processes (in terms of energy), another is that "entropy increases". However, entropy is not energy; it is not measured in Joule, but in Joule/Kelvin. In any case, you might say that when energy is wasted, entropy increases.Wasted energy will increase the amount of useless, or unusable, energy, and reduce the amount of usable energy in the Universe.

Entropy involves losing energy over time?
that is not a full questionif it was does entropy involve losing energy ever time, then yes
When does entropy increases?
Entropy increases when ever energy is used up. Energy cannot be destroyed, but it is always lost in the form of unusable energy. Entropy is the % of unusable energy compared to usable energy in a given system.
What happens to a liquid when it releases enough energy called?
A liquid becomes a solid when heat is removed. The energy content decreases, and the speed of the particles decrease.
What does the conservaton suggest about the conservation of energy the conservation of matter and the conservation of momentum?
The Conservation of Matter and the Conservation of Momentum are the consequence of the Conservation of Energy.
Which is a statement of the second law of thermodynamics?
