I need help with a biology question for my homework. So it asks “second law of thermodynamics uses letters S.H.G.T. write them in order in the correct equation formation and explain what each letter means” Then the second question says “What is the meaning of the equation you are writing” So I just know that S stands for entropy of energy H stands for total energy or enthalpy G strands for free energy to do more leftover work
