A hot metal plate at 150°C has been placed in air at room temperature. Which event would most likely take place over the next few minutes?
O Molecules in both the metal and the surrounding air will start moving at lower speeds.
O Molecules in both the metal and the surrounding air will start moving at higher speeds.
O The air molecules that are surrounding the metal will slow down, and the molecules in the metal will speed up.
O The air molecules that are surrounding the metal will speed up, and the molecules in the metal will slow down.

It would be the third answer.

Explanation:

This is because over the next few minutes, the heat would radiate away from the atoms in the metal plate and the atoms around the plate would absorb this radiation.

a). in this case, dh> 0 and sd> 0. if t becomes larger, the term "-tds" will become more negative. at some point, it is possible that -dts will be more negative than the dh is positive, and the reaction will become spontaneous. this is probably the correct answer, but you should look at all of the other possibilities and make sure of that.
