Your boss asks you to design a room that can be as soundproof as possible and provides you with three samples of material. the only information on each sample's label is the material's coefficient of absorption. the coefficient of absorption listed on sample a is 30%, on sample b is 47%, and on sample c is 62%. when your boss asks for your choice and the reasoning behind it, what would you tell him? a. sample a would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest. b. sample a would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the largest. c. sample c would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest. d. sample c would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the largest.

The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. despite its name, silica gel is a solid. it is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of sio2. because water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, it acts as a desiccant. despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. predict the signs for δg, δh, and δs for the adsorption of water.
