Re: Reversible processes
Isothermal reactions which are reversible use ΔS = nRln V2/V1 while irreversible reactions dealing with a change in temperature while P or V is held constant use ΔS = nClnT2/T1

Re: Reversible processes
A reversible process has zero entropy since it is at equilibrium with its surroundings.

Re: Reversible processes
Reversible reactions allow minimal entropy changes as the system is in equilibrium with its surroundings. However, irreversible reactions have entropy change because there is no constant temperature and there is always disorder within the system.
