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.

Δ S is related with q and T for a reversible reaction as: Δ S = (qrev/T)

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.

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

If assertion is true but reason is false

If both assertion and reason are false

$Δ S$ is related with $q$ and $T$ for a reversible reaction as : $Δ S = \frac{q _{re v}}{T}$
