NEET Chemistry Entropy MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-diagram based-Hard-Class 11

Consider a diagram representing the process of an ideal gas undergoing both reversible and irreversible isothermal expansion. Which label correctly identifies the entropy change for the irreversible process?

Question diagram
A

∆S total > 0

B

∆S total = 0

C

∆S total < 0

D

∆S total = ∆U

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

For an irreversible process, the total entropy change (∆S total) is greater than zero, indicating an increase in entropy for the system and surroundings.
