3rd law of thermodynamics states: The entropy change associated with any condensed system undergoing a reversible isothermal process approaches zero as the temperature at which it is performed approaches 0 K.

It also says: It is impossible for any process, no matter how idealized, to reduce the entropy of a system to its absolute zero value in a finite number of operations.

Hence, Option number (3) is correct
