Which of the following statements is TRUE?
a) Entropy is an extensive property
b) Entropy is not temperature dependent
c) Exothermic processes decrease the entropy of the surroundings
d) ΔSuniverse is always greater than zero for a nonspontaneous process
e)None of the above are true

the correct answer is E

Explanation:

None of the options is correct, because entropy is the thermodynamic magnitude that indicates the degree of molecular disorder of a system, in exothermic processes energy or heat is released to the medium and energy is taken from the medium in endothermic processes, entropy if it depends of the temperature since the temperature is what sometimes determines if the process is spontaneous or not, and the delta universe in spontaneous processes is not always greater than zero, it is more frequently less than zero with negative values.

the old alchemists made significant contributions to science even though there starting premises were off a bit. their conclusions after failure would steer them into better directions for investigation. science is no more than close observation and the initial mistakes result in rethinking and retrying experiments.
