Can a process occur if the entropy of the system decreases and the enthalpy increases?

Enzymes lower the energy required to reach the ____________ of a reaction A) transition state B) first intermediate C) Vmax D) products E) equilibrium

The second law of thermodynamics, in a very general sense, states that entropy (S) is always increasing. ASuniverse AS system + AS surroundings > 0 When phospholipids are dispersed in an aqueous solution, they will often form more ordered structures in the form of micelles, liposomes, or lipid bilayers. This behavior seemingly contradicts the second law of thermodynamics. Why is this behavior in agreement with the second law of thermodynamics? Liposome Micelle Bilayer sheet
