The arrangement of atoms in a mineral can change its physical and chemical properties.
Diamonds and coal are both made of carbon, however, their chemical and physical properties are very different.
Answer: Reaction 1 is non spontaneous.
Explanation:
According to Gibb's equation:
= Gibbs free energy
= enthalpy change
= entropy change
T = temperature in Kelvin
When = +ve, reaction is non spontaneous
= -ve, reaction is spontaneous
= 0, reaction is in equilibrium
For the given reaction 1: 
As for the reaction 1 , the value of Gibbs free energy is positive and thus the reaction 1 is non spontaneous.
Answer:
Explanation:
In one of the process, energy is built up from scratch, in the other one, energy is liberated for use by an organism or body.
The first process deals with a metabolic reaction in which energy is liberated:
C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy
In the above process, energy is liberated when glucose combines with oxygen. The waste products are carbon dioxide and water. This process liberates heat energy which can be used to do work.
In the reverse process:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
This process stores energy in carbon chains as chemical energy. It is this energy that is released in the first process.
Therefore, we can see that the first process liberates energy and the reverse process stores energy.
