Chapter 7, Problem 7.31AP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The process where the entropy of the given system increases among the given options has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Entropy (S): It is used to describe the disorder. It is the amount of arrangements possible in a system at a particular state.

If the disorder increases in a system, then ΔS>0

If the disorder decreases in a system, then ΔS<0
