The correct answer to the question is C. Entropy , which measures the disorder in a system. Entropy quantifies how spread out or random the energy is and illustrates the tendency of systems to move toward greater disorder. This concept is fundamental to thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, helping explain why systems evolve towards higher entropy states.
