Vedclass · Answer

(B) Entropy is a state function, so the change in entropy depends only on the initial and final states, not on the path taken.
For the process $A ightarrow B$, we can write the path as $A ightarrow C ightarrow D ightarrow B$.
Therefore, $\Delta S_{(A ightarrow B)} = \Delta S_{(A ightarrow C)} + \Delta S_{(C ightarrow D)} + \Delta S_{(D ightarrow B)}$.
Since $\Delta S_{(D ightarrow B)} = -\Delta S_{(B ightarrow D)}$, we have:
$\Delta S_{(A ightarrow B)} = \Delta S_{(A ightarrow C)} + \Delta S_{(C ightarrow D)} - \Delta S_{(B ightarrow D)}$
Substituting the given values:
$\Delta S_{(A ightarrow B)} = 50 + 30 - 20 = 60 	ext{ e.u.}$
