8.

During an investigation, you connect two containers by a thin tube. A stopcock keeps the tube closed. One container is empty, and the other contains a gas. What will happen if you open the stopcock to connect the containers?

a)

The gas will spread out to fill both containers as it does work on the system.

b)

The entropy of the gas will increase, and it will spread out to fill both containers.

c)

The internal energy of the gas will increase as it all flows into the other container.

d)

The gas will all flow into the other container because heat is added to the system.
