Answer:

Entropy is a measure of the degree of spreading and sharing of thermal energy within a system. For an ideal gas that expands at a constant temperature (meaning that it absorbs heat from the surroundings to compensate for the work it does during the expansion), the increase in entropy is given by ΔS= R1n (V2/V1)

Step-by-step explanation:
