Which of the following statements are true?
1.When a system loses energy its energy goes up TRUE or FALSE
2. When a system loses energy the surrounding\'s energy goes up TRUE or FALSE
3. A combustion reaction, like a candle burning, loses energy and so the surroundings get hot. TRUE or FALSE
4. In a chemical reaction, the \"system\" is the chemicals involved in the reaction and the \"surroundings\" is everything else. TRUE or FALSE
5. In a chemical reaction, the \"system\" is the chemicals involved in the reaction and the beaker that contains them, the \"surroundings\" is everything outside of the beaker. TRUE or FALSE
1.When a system loses energy its energy goes up FALSE
reason: POTENTIAL ENERGY DECREASES
2. When a system loses energy the surrounding\'s energy goes up TRUE
reason: Exothermic reactions may occur spontaneously and result in higher randomness or entropy (ΔS > 0) of the system. They are denoted by a negative heat flow (heat is lost to the surroundings) and decrease in enthalpy (ΔH < 0)
3. A combustion reaction, like a candle burning, loses energy and so the surroundings get hot. TRUE
4. In a chemical reaction, the \"system\" is the chemicals involved in the reaction and the \"surroundings\" is everything else. TRUE
reason: the object which is under observation is called as the system
5. In a chemical reaction, the \"system\" is the chemicals involved in the reaction and the beaker that contains them, the \"surroundings\" is everything outside of the beaker. FALSE
reason: the object which is not under observation is not a system i.e, beaker is not involving in the reaction
