Explain what entropy is and how the entropy of the universe is always increasing and how it takes energy to decrease the entropy of a system.
Entropy is Second law of Thermodynamics. In the system thermal energy converted in to Mechanical work.
Second law states that any spontaneous process disorders the system.
Entropy is measure of Disorder.
Energy always flows from high to low.
For example Water always flows from high region to low region.
The temparature is also flows form hot to cold.
We can add energy to solid it will becomes liquid.
In a chemical reaction the more no. of gaseous molecules released. It will tends to entropy of the universe increases.
The Entropy of the system never decrease because it is a spontaneous process.
Once it will interacts with other system then only entropy of the universe decreases.
