Entropy
When a system is heated, experiences an increase an volume, or a decrease in pressure, entropy increases. In what other scenarios will entropy increase?

Re: Entropy
When the system goes from solid to liquid, or liquid to gas, entropy also increases. If a reaction creates more mols of gas than were previously present then entropy increases as well.

Re: Entropy
it's good to note that the entropy of a system decreases only when it interacts with some other system whose entropy increases in the process.
