Q. When you make ice cubes, the entropy of water:

AFMCAFMC 2006

Solution:

The entropy function gives us a numerical measure of the irreversibility of a given process, i.e., it is a measure of disorder of a system. During formation of ice cubes ordered ness increases, i.e., disorder ness decreases, hence entropy decreases.
