@HelpingHawk Do you know the answer? :/

anonymous · Answer

what i remember is this 

The entropy of an isolated system never decreases, because isolated systems spontaneously decay towards thermodynamic equilibrium, the maximum entropy. Systems which are not isolated may decrease in entropy. Since entropy is a state function, the change in the entropy of a system is the same for any process going from a given initial state to a given final state, whether the process is reversible or irreversible. However irreversible processes increase the combined entropy of the system and its environment.

all the given processes are easily  revesible

but i fell the anwer is C

That all makes sense. That would lead me to believe the answer is C as well, I'll have to let you know if it's right or not

for sure

entropy of Gas> entropy Liquid> entropy of the Solid

if you convert solid to liquid 
and liquid to gas then entropy increases

if you convert gas to liquid and liquid to solid then entropy decreases
