Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: If perfect balance or equilibrium were attained, then the personality would have no psychic energy because the opposition principle requires conflict for psychic energy to be produced. Ideally, the personality has an equal distribution of psychic energy overall its aspects, but this ideal state is never achieved.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: In physics, the principle of entropy refers to the equalization of energy differences. Jung applied this law to psychic energy by proposing that there is a tendency toward maintaining a balance or equilibrium in the personality. If two desires or beliefs differ greatly in intensity or psychic value, energy will flow from the more strongly held to the weaker.
