Interpretation:
The reversible process should be identified.
Concept introduction:
The process is said to be reversible in nature if the system and surroundings can be returned to its original conditions from final state. During this process, no changes is observed in
Answer to Problem 5STP
The correct option is (c), water freezing to become ice.
Explanation of Solution
Reason for correct option:
Water freezing to become ice is a reversible process in which the
Hence, the correct option is (c), water freezing to become ice.
Reason for incorrect options:
It is an irreversible process that means once the safety match is lighten up or a log is burned on fire then it cannot be returned to its original conditions from final state as the combustion reaction takes place and forms products having different chemical compositions in comparison to the starting materials.
It is an irreversible process that means once the ingredients are mixed up for the cake and baked then it cannot be returned to its original conditions from final state.
