PLEASE HELP, EASY QUESTION!!!!  Which of the following best describes the freezing of water?
negative change in enthalpy, low temperature and positive entropy
negative change in enthalpy, low temperature and negative entropy
positive change in enthalpy, low temperature and positive entropy  
positive change in enthalpy,low temperature and negative entropy
negative change in enthalpy, high temperature and negative entropy.

Respuesta :

I think the correct answer would be negative change in enthalpy, low temperature and negative entropy. Freezing of water is an exothermic process which means heat is released to the surroundings so negative enthalpy. And this is seen in the change to a lower temperature. Entropy is negative which signifies that there is more order as water freezes.
