Answer:

a. all systems move toward increased entropy

Explanation:

According to the second law of thermodynamics, in an isolated system the total entropy can never decrease over time. The entropy may remain constant under ideal conditions but can never decrease.

For closed system reversible process

[tex]dS=\frac{\delta Q}{T}[/tex]

Where,

ds = Change in Entropy

[tex]\delta Q[/tex] = Change in heat

T = Temperature

For closed system irreversible process

[tex]dS>\frac{\delta Q}{T_{surr}}[/tex]

For quasistatic irreversible process without composition change

[tex]dS=\frac{\delta Q}{T}[/tex]
