    Answer : Option D

    Explanation :

    From second law of thermodynamics
    TdS⩾δQ⇒TdS⩾dU+δW
    For an irreversible process S−dU−δW>0.    So, system undergoing irreversible change under constant internal energy and constant volume will have entropy change greater than zero dS>0.
    And for an reversible process TdS−dU−δW=0.
