For each of the following pairs of substances, state which substance, if either, has the higher chemical potential:

(a) H2O(l) at 25°C and 1 atm vs. H2O(g) at 25°C and 1 atm;


(b) H2O(s) at 0°C and 1 atm vs. H2O(l) at 0°C and 1 atm;


(c) H2O(s) at −5°C and 1 atm vs. supercooled H2O(l) at −5°C  and 1 atm;


(d) C6H12O6(i) at 25°C and 1 atm vs. C6H12O6(aq) in an unsaturated aqueous solution at 25°C and 1 atm;


(e) C6H12O6(s) at 25°C and 1 atm vs. C6H12O6(aq) in a saturated solution at 25°C and 1 atm;


(f) C6H12O6(s) at 25°C and 1 atm vs. C6H12O6(aq) in a supersaturated solution at 25°C and 1 atm.


(g) Which substance in (a) has the higher Gm?
