  1. Dynamic equilibrium vs equilibrium.
  1. What is the difference between a reaction in dynamic equilibrium and one at equilibrium?
  2. What is the difference between an open and a closed system?
  1. Entropy Changes during Egg Development Consider a system consisting of an egg in an incubator. The white and yolk of the egg contain proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. If fertilized, the egg is transformed from a single cell to a complex organism. Discuss this irreversible process in terms of the entropy changes in the system, surroundings, and universe. Be sure that you first clearly define the system and surroundings.
