Which of the following is the
exact relation between
entropy and thermodynamic
probability
Answers
It follows therefore that if the thermodynamic probability W of a system increases, its entropy S must increase too. ... The statement that the entropy increases when a spontaneous change occurs is called the second law of thermodynamics.

What is relation between entropy and probability?
Entropy ~ a measure of the disorder of a system. A high order state = low probability. A low-order state = high probability. In an irreversible process, the universe moves from a state of low probability to a state of higher probability.
Explanation
If the thermodynamic probability W of a system increases, its entropy S must also increase. Furthermore, since W always increases with a spontaneous change, it follows that S must also increase with such a change.
the entropy increasing when a spontaneous change occurs is called the second law of thermodynamics. (The first law is the law of conservation of energy.)
