Does entropy of system remain the same when reversible process (1) changes fo irreversible process (2) in this problem? Why? And does entropy of surrounding change? Why?Does entropy of system remain the same when reversible process (1) changes

5. [25] One mole of a perfect gas at 300K is isothermally compressed from a volume of 25.0L to a volume of 10.0 L in a water bath. Because the water bath thermal reservoir in the surroundings is very large, T remains essentially constant at 300K during the process. Calculate S,Ssurroundings, and Stotal for the cases below. (1) Reversible compression. (2) Compression by a constant external pressure equal to the final pressure. At the end of the process, p= pexternal. Because p=pextemal at all but the final state, the process is irreversible. 5.
