The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem, we need to analyze both statements regarding entropy and state functions in thermodynamics. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Statement 1**: - The first statement claims that "Entropy is not a state function because its value depends upon the conditions of temperature and pressure." - **Analysis**: Entropy (S) is indeed a state function. It is defined as a measure of the disorder or randomness in a system. The value of entropy does depend on the state of the system, which includes temperature and pressure, but it does not depend on how the system reached that state. Therefore, the first statement is incorrect. 2. **Understanding Statement 2**: - The second statement states that "A state function depends only on the initial and final states of the system and is independent of the path." - **Analysis**: This statement is correct. State functions, such as entropy, internal energy, enthalpy, pressure, and volume, are properties that depend solely on the state of the system (initial and final) and not on the process or path taken to achieve that state. 3. **Conclusion**: - Since Statement 1 is incorrect and Statement 2 is correct, we can conclude that the correct option is that Statement 1 is false and Statement 2 is true. ### Final Answer: - **Statement 1**: False - **Statement 2**: True
