Solution

The correct option is C Entropy
A system is said to be in thermodynamic equilibrium when the macroscopic particles do not undergo any change with time.
For a system in thermodynamic equilibrium, S (i.e. entropy) is maximum.

While at constant temperature and volume, A (i.e. Helmholtz free energy) and at constant temperature and pressure, G (i.e. Gibb's free energy) is minimum.

Hence the correct option is C.
