Water of mass $m$ gram is slowly heated to increase the temperature from $T_1$ to $T_2$. The change in entropy of the water,given specific heat of water is $1 \ J \ g^{-1} \ K^{-1}$,is

  • A
    zero
  • B
    $m(T_2 - T_1)$
  • C
    $m \ln \left(\frac{T_1}{T_2}\right)$
  • D
    $m \ln \left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)$
