Which statement is correct? Natural processes happen spontaneously when they decrease the entropy of a system because entropy increase is counteracted by the flow of enthalpy from high temperatures to low temperatures.

Dissolving table salt (NaCl) in water leads to a decrease in entropy because salt particles, which are numerous individual crystals in solid form, become a homogenous solution in water.

Any change that increases the number of particles in a system increases entropy because it increases the randomness and disorder of the system.

Among solids, liquids, and gases, solids generally have the highest entropy because solid particles are the least mobile, and entropy is inversely related to mobility of particles.

Melting and boiling are endothermic processes. this means that these processes absorb energy from their surroundings in order to occur. use this information and the data you collected in the phase change gizmo to describe what happens to the temperature of water when you boil it, then explain why this result occurs.
