Solution
The correct option is DCvln(Tc+Th)24Th.Tc The net heat absorbed by hot and cold body is equal to zero. qH+qC=0 Let CV is the total heat capacity of hot and cold body. CV(Tf−Tc)+CV(Tf−TH)=0 ⇒Tf=TH−TH2 Entropy change ΔSTotal=ΔShotbody+ΔScoldbody ΔShotbody=CV.ln[TfTH] ΔScoldbody=CV.ln[TfTC] ΔSTotal=CV[lnTfTH+lnTfTC] CV[lnTf2TH.TC]
