Entropy is increasing Entropy is decreasing iron rusts to iron oxide a snowman melts on a spring day a document goes through a slice of hot pizza cools off on a plate a paper shredder water vapor from the air forms water droplets on the outside of a cold soft drink can Previous Check Answer NextExi Hint

Explanation / Answer

Rusting of iron is a spontaneous process and hence the entropy increases

melting of a snow man is also a randomness of molecules will increase hence entropy increases

when it cools the randomness of molecule will decrease hence entropy decreases

document goes through shredder entropy will decrease

forming water particles will reduce randomness hence entropy decreases

---------------------------------------------------------------

Entropy increasing

iron rusts to iron oxide

a snowman melts on a spring day

remaining cases entropy decreases
