Shown are:
- Entropy change of the system: \( \class{red}{\Delta S} \).
- Entropy change of the surroundings: \( \class{green}{\Delta S_{\text e}} \).
- Entropy change of the universe: \( \Delta S_{\text u} \).
According to the second law of thermodynamics, the entropy of the universe increases for spontaneous processes.
