State second law of thermodynamics.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since all the natural processes are spontaneous, they take place with increases in the entropy.
Hence second law of thermodynamics can be represented mathematically as
`DeltaS_("Total") = DeltaS_("system") + DeltaS_("surr") gt 0 ` (for spontaneous process)
`DeltaS_("Universe") = DeltaS_("System") + DeltaS_("surr") gt 0`
