Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics
Entropy change for an irreversible isolated system is
- A. ∞
- B. 0
- C. < 0
- D. > 0
From second law of thermodynamics TdS⩾δQ⇒TdS⩾dU+δW
For an irreversible process S−dU−δW>0. So, system undergoing irreversible change under constant internal energy and constant volume will have entropy change greater than zero dS>0.
And for an reversible process TdS−dU−δW=0.
