State the characteristics of entropy.
(N/A) $(i)$ Entropy is a measure of disorder or randomness in a system.
$(ii)$ It is a state function,meaning its value depends only on the initial and final states of the system.
$(iii)$ It is an extensive property,as its value depends on the amount of matter present in the system.
