Select all of the following statements that are true about entropy and the second law:
1. The higher the heat capacity of the system, the more microstates it contains.
2. When the ΔSsurr = - ΔSsys, the reaction will be spontaneous in the reverse direction.
3.A reaction that has a positive ΔSsys and a positive ΔSsurr will always be spontaneous, regardless of temperature.
4. When the ΔSsys is positive, the reaction will be spontaneous in the direction written.
5. When the ΔSuniv = 0, the system is at equilibrium.
6. Spontaneous reactions happen quickly.
7. If a spontaneous reaction has a negative ΔSsys, the change in the ΔSsurr must be positive and larger than the system value.
