Question:

Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Perpetual motion machines are a possibility in the near future.

B. The entropy of a system always decreases for a spontaneous process.

C. A spontaneous reaction is always a fast reaction.

D. There is a "heat tax" for every energy transaction.

E. None of the above are true.

The correct answer is D)

There is a "heat tax" for every energy transaction.

Explanation:

Heat and work are two different ways in which energy is moved from one device to another. In the field of thermodynamics the distinction between Heat and Work is significant. The transfer of thermal energy between systems is heat. This is what is referred to as "heat tax".

No other statement in the question above is correct.

a  solution  is always transparent, light passes through with no scattering from solute particles which are molecule in size. the  solution  is homogeneous and does not settle out. a colloid is intermediate between asolution  and a  suspension. while asuspension  will separate out a colloid will not.
