    The answers that represent a decrease in entropy are:

    -CO2 gas is dissolved in water to make a carbonated beverage

    -NO2 (g) → N2O4 (g)

    Explanation:

    Since in carbonated drinks, carbon dioxide is in its liquid form, since a pressure is applied to said gas, in this way, when carbon dioxide dissolves in a liquid, its entropy decreases, thus producing a negative change in entropy (the entropy of a gas is higher than the entropy of a liquid).

    The number of gaseous reagents is equal to 1-2 = - 1. Since it is negative, therefore, entropy is also negative.
