Answer:

<h2>Due to extraction of heat from the water the entropy of the water will decrease</h2><h2>so correct answer is</h2><h2>C decreases in entropy</h2>

Explanation:

As we know that the entropy is defined as

$\Delta S = \int{\frac{dQ}{T}}$

So here we know that initially in ice tray we put water at room temperature into this

After placing this into the refrigerator the heat is extracted out of the water due to which the entropy of water will decrease

So correct answer here will be

C decreases in entropy
