Carbon atoms can be found in a variety of elemental forms. At sufficiently high temperature, carbon is an atomic gas. At room temperature, both tetrahedral networks in diamond and trigonal planar networks in graphite can be found. Trigonal planar networks of carbon atoms are also found in Buckminsterfullerene (C60). How does the standard entropy of these forms vary per mole of carbon?

At body temperature, many proteins have a well-defined structure that is essential to their function. However, as the temperature is raised, the structure changes and the protein is no longer functional. This process is referred to as protein denaturation. What can be deduced from this information about the signs of the enthalpy and entropy changes for denaturation?
