The second law of thermodynamics states that it is impossible to construct an engine that operating in a cycle will produce no effect other than the transfer of heat from a cooler to a hotter body.
The second law of thermodynamics states that it is impossible to construct an engine that operates in a cycle and produces no effect other than the extraction of heat from a reservoir and the performance of an equal amount of work.
The second law of thermodynamics indicates that entropy is a measure of irreversibility, the second law applies to the system alone if the system is isolated; that is , if it is not interacting with its surroundings
Ted Chiang address the 2nd law of thermodynamics in his short story "Exhalation". the epistle follows characters like scientists, con artists, merchants, software designers, and even parrots across space and dimensions
The metallic beings in Ted Chiang's Exhalation are powered by mechanical lungs learnt they are in sealed chamber in a universe believed that their sky and breathable air is infinite
The metallic beings are wrong because the air flow and argon been the source will reach an equilibrium and air flow ceases
The entropy in a closed system never decreases that it will increase
stated mathematically = dS = dQ/T unit J/K
Where dS = change in entropy
dQ = change in energy Joule
T = absolute change in temperature Kelvin
Thus it can be concluded that in Exhalation in relation to entropy of second law of thermodynamics that rate of intake of argon air flow by the metallic beings will increase and becomes irreversible until the rate of equilibrium is achieved and no outside interaction it ceases and the metallic beings are doomed.

Second Law of Thermodynamics states that, The processes that involves transfer or conversiom are Irreversible.
In 'Exhalation' the author Ted Chiang deeply thinks and writted about the source and meaning of life.
<u>Explanation:</u>
In this SCI- FI Short story he returns with collections to the idea of meaning and purpose of life of humans exists.
He wrote as , "The universe began as an enormous breath being held. Who knows why, but whatever the reason, I am glad that it did, because I owe my existence to that fact. All my desires and ruminations are no more and no less than eddy currents generated by the gradual exhalation of our universe. And until this great exhalation is finished, my thoughts live on."
The life of a human being is related to the Second law of thermodynamics for existence.
