Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The degree of randomness or disorder is known as entropy. This means that more randomly or rapidly the molecules of a substance are moving in a container or in the Universe more will be its entropy.

For example, gases move more rapidly that solids or liquids and hence gases have high entropy.

Therefore, we can conclude that entropy measures disorder.
