4. Why are free interactions of water molecules in bulk water more favorable than more ordered interactions
with nonpolar compounds?
a. The total entropy in such interactions increases because the Gibbs free energy is positive.
RO
b. The total entropy in such interactions decreases because the Gibbs free energy is negative.
c. The enthalpy of the ordered state is lower than the enthalpy of the bulk state.
d. The total entropy in such interactions increases because the Gibbs free energy is negative.
