Chemistry
Second law of thermodynamics
In Class 11 Chemistry, this topic from Chemical Thermodynamics explains why heat flows naturally from a hotter body to a colder one and why many processes cannot be completely reversed. Students explore entropy as a measure of energy dispersal, distinguish spontaneous from non-spontaneous changes, and relate entropy change to the feasibility of a process. The topic also builds the foundation for understanding reversible processes, the second-law criterion, and the application of thermodynamic reasoning to chemical reactions and physical changes.
