Q. Assertion : Heat added to a system at lower temperature causes greater randomness than when the same quantity of heat is added to it at higher temperature.
Reason : Entropy is a measure of the degree of randomness or disorder in the system.

Thermodynamics

Solution:

$\Delta S$ is related with $q$ and $T$ for a reversible reaction as : $\Delta S = \frac{q_{rev}}{T}$
