The Second law of Thermodynamics predicts that matter and energy tend to become increasingly disorganized in this universe. The law says that disorder is more probable than order and that to maintain order, it is necessary to expend energy. The Second law implies that there can be no such thing as a perfectly insulated container and that no transfer of energy can occur without some energy loss.  In this laboratory session, you will be expanding your experience with the Second Law to explore its influence on the movement of matter.
