NEET 2021 Chemistry Entropy MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11

For irreversible expansion of an ideal gas under isothermal condition, the correct option is:

A

ΔU = 0, ΔS_total = 0

B

ΔU ≠ 0, ΔS_total ≠ 0

C

ΔU = 0, ΔS_total ≠ 0

D

ΔU ≠ 0, ΔS_total = 0

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

In an isothermal process, the internal energy change (ΔU) is zero. However, for an irreversible process, the total entropy change (ΔS_total) is not zero.
