Answer:

Second law of thermodynamics.

Step-by-step explanation:

Second law of thermodynamics states the entropy or order in an isolated system always increases. The isolated system evolve spontaneously toward thermal thermal equilibrium.

For example if a room is untidy and dirty,it will become messy over time and disorder. So when the room is cleaned, there won't be disorderliness and entropy will decrease.
