Set 3: Command of Evidence (Advanced)
Explanation
PASSAGE
Entropy, per the Second Law of Thermodynamics, always increases in closed systems. This 'arrow of time' explains why broken eggs don't reassemble—the disordered state is overwhelmingly more probable.
What does entropy explain?
Detailed Explanation
This question requires you to identify evidence that supports a claim. 'Broken eggs don't reassemble' = irreversibility, increasing disorder. The best evidence directly and explicitly supports the stated claim without requiring assumptions. Match specific textual details or data points to the claim being made. The correct answer provides clear, direct support. Strong evidence directly addresses the claim without requiring additional interpretation. When evaluating options, look for quotes or data that explicitly support the statement. Weak evidence may be tangentially related but doesn't provide direct proof.
Key Evidence:
• "Entropy, per the Second Law of Thermodynamics, always increases in closed systems"
Why others are wrong: A (This option is incorrect.), B (This option is incorrect.), D (This option is incorrect.).
