The Molecular Interpretation of Entropy and the Third Law of Thermodynamics (Section)

Indicate whether each statement is true or false, (a) The third law of thermodynamics says that the entropy of a perfect, pure crystal at absolute zero increases with the mass of the crystal, (b) "Translational motion" of molecules refers to their change in spatial location as a function of time, (c) "Rotational" and "vibrational" motions contribute to the entropy in atomic gases like He and Xe. (d) The larger the number of atoms in a molecule, the more degrees of freedom of rotational and vibrational motion it likely has.
