During photosynthesis, light energy is converted to the energy in chemical bonds. what also happens according to the predictions of the second law of thermodynamics?
question 20 options:

chemical energy is converted to light energy

matter is lost in the process

heat is released in the process

the light and chemical energy are equal

Answer:

According to the predictions of the second law of thermodynamics "heat is released in the process".

Explanation:

The "second law  of thermodynamics states that total entropy of the isolated system can never be decreased over but is constant if all processes are reversible". Similarly in photosynthesis not all the energy are taken by the plants, some reflected and some are lost as well. However, the loss of energy to the surrounding results in increase of entropy. The energy used in the photosynthesis is the light. The source of this light is sunlight.  

sulfur dioxide

explanation: acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. these substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain.
