There is an increase in entropy because the energetically equivalent ways to arrange the components of the system increased. Option A and C.
The term entropy refers to the degree of disorder in a system. Thus we know that any change that leads to an increase in the number of particles will lead to an increase in entropy.
Hence, we can see from the diagram that the energetically equivalent ways to arrange the components of the system increased hence there is a positive increase in entropy. The correct options are therefore A and C.
