2 red and 2 overlapping balls in the center are surrounded by a green, fuzzy, circular cloud with a white line running through it. 2 green balls sit on the white line, and a line leading a bracket around the balls is labeled A. A line leading to a bracket overlapping the white line is labeled B. Identify the parts of the atom that are labeled in the diagram.

Label A:

Label B:

The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. despite its name, silica gel is a solid. it is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of sio2. because water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, it acts as a desiccant. despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. predict the signs for δg, δh, and δs for the adsorption of water.
