According to the law of conservation of matter, we know that the total number of atoms does not change in a chemical reaction and thus mass is conserved. The reactant in this model is hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide decomposes to produce water and oxygen gas. How many water molecules must be added to complete this model?

What is the thermodynamic driving force for dissolving a solid in a liquid if it is an endothermic process (which reduces the entropy of the surroundings)? 1. the combustion of propane. 2. the increase of the entropy of the system. 3. increased temperature of the system and surroundings. 4. the decrease of the entropy of the system. 5. the increase or decrease of the entropy of the system?
