Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
(a) `DeltaS_("sys")` is positive ; `DeltaS_("surr")` is negative; (b) `DeltaS_("sys")` is positive , `DeltaS_("surr")` is negative; (c) `DeltaS_("sys")` is positive, `DeltaS_("surr")` is negative.

`(a) DeltaS_(sys)` is positive , `DeltaS_("surr")` is negative,
(b)` DeltaS_(sys)` is positive , `DeltaS_("surr")` is negative,
(c)` DeltaS_(sys)` is positive , `DeltaS_("surr")` is negative.
