Answer»

Entropy is the extend of disorder in a system.

= In option A, Four moles of reactants give rise to two moles of products. This reduces the disorder in the system.= In option B, 4 moles or reactants give rise to 5 moles of products. Disorder of the system increases.= In option C, one mole of reactant gives rise to two moles of product. again disorder increases.=. In option D, reactants and products have same number of moles. No disorder in system.In option A, as disorder decreases, it shows negative entropy.
