During a thermodynamic process, the entropy of a certain system decreases by 1.0 J/K. What are some possible entropy changes that could have occurred within the system's surrounding environment?<--EndFragment-->
  1.Its entropy could have also decreased by 1.0 J/K.
  2.Its entropy could have remained constant.
  3.Its entropy could have increased by 2.5 J/K.
  4.All of these could have occurred.

Question 2

In a reversible cycle
  1.the change in the entropy of the system (measured over the whole cycle) is always zero.
  2.the change in the entropy of the system (measured over the whole cycle) may be zero, but it isn't necessarily always zero.
  3.The change in the entropy of the system (measured over the whole cycle) is always greater than zero.
  4.The change in the entropy of the system (measured over the whole cycle) is always less than zero.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
