How does entropy change in a spontaneous reaction?
Accepted Answer
In a spontaneous reaction, entropy tends to increase, leading to a more disordered system. This increase in entropy is in accordance with the second law of thermodynamics, which states that the entropy of the universe tends to increase over time. Spontaneous processes contribute to the overall randomness and disorderliness of the universe.
