The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of a system either increases or remains constant in any spontaneous process; it never decreases. ... Heat cannot transfer energy spontaneously from colder to hotter, because the entropy of the overall system would decrease.

Thermodynamics is the study of the relations between heat, work, temperature, and energy. The laws of thermodynamics describe how the energy in a system changes and whether the system can perform useful work on its surroundings.
The second law of thermodynamics establishes the concept of entropy as a physical property of a thermodynamic system.
