A logical consequence of the second law of thermodynamics could be stated, O if there is an increase in the energy of a system, there must be a corresponding decrease in the energy of the rest of the universe. O energy can be transferred or transformed, but it cannot be created or destroyed. O every energy transfer requires activation energy from the environment. O if the entropy of a system increases, there must be a corresponding decrease in the entropy of the universe. O a spontaneous chemical reaction must increase the total entropy of the universe.
