Detailed explanation-3: -Therefore hydrogen has the highest Entropy.
Detailed explanation-4: -Ice melting, salt or sugar dissolving, making popcorn and boiling water for tea are processes with increasing entropy in your kitchen.
Detailed explanation-5: -When a substance goes from a solid to a gas (sublimation) or from a liquid to a gas (evaporation), entropy increases.
