Does increased order in mass result in more chemical or atomic energy?

Answer 1

An increase in the 'order' of a system generally leads to a decrease in entropy. But this is in no way an increase in any potential energy (of any kind) that exists in the system. You still need to provide 'activation energy' to extract any chemical energy present. As long as there's mass, there is potential energy since energy and mass are the same thing.

Answer 2

yes it might be because increase in the order also inceases the no:of electrons which also increases the energy like ionisation and electron affinity when required. sothere in increase in energy.hope this might help you.....................
