MCQ
A solid body of constant heat capacity $1\,J /{ }^{\circ} C$ is being heated by keeping it in contact with reservoirs in two ways :

$(i)$ Sequentially keeping in contact with $2$ reservoirs such that each reservoir supplies same amount of heat.

$(ii)$ Sequentially keeping in contact with 8 reservoirs such that each reservoir supplies same amount of heat.

In both the cases body is brought from initial temperature $100^{\circ}\,C$ to final temperature $200^{\circ}\,C$. Entropy change of the body in the two cases respectively is :

  • A
    $\ln 2,2 \ln 2$
  • B
    $2 \ln 2,8 \ln 2$
  • C
    $\ln 2,4 \ln 2$
  • $\ln 2, \ln 2$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$\ln 2, \ln 2$
d
(d)

The entropy change of the body in the two cases is same as entropy is a state function.
