Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics states that energy is not lost from a system. The second law states that total energy(entropy) of a system which is isolated can never decrease over a period of time.

In ideal cases where the whole system is in equilibrium, or it is undergoing an reversible change the total energy remains constant.The total energy remains equal it neither increases nor decreases.

The second law of thermodynamics states this. Hence, the given statement is false.
