A hot penny is dropped into cold water inside a polystyrene foam cup.Assuming negligible heat loss to the atmosphere and the cup,
A) the decrease in entropy of the penny is equal to the increase in entropy of the water.
∣ ΔSpenny ∣ = ∣ ΔSwater ∣
B) the decrease in entropy of the penny is less than the increase in entropy of the water.
∣ ΔSpenny ∣ < ∣ ΔSwater ∣
C) the decrease in entropy of the penny is more than the increase in entropy of the water.
∣ ΔSpenny ∣ > ∣ ΔSwater ∣
D) the entropy of both the penny and the water increases.
