One $$kg$$ of an ideal gas (gas constant $$R=287$$ $$J/kg$$-$$K$$) undergoes an irreversible process from state- $${\rm I}$$ ( $$1$$ bar, $$300$$ $$K$$ ) to state-$$2$$ ( $$2$$ bar, $$300$$ $$K$$). The change in specific entropy $$\left( {{s_2} - {s_1}} \right)$$ of the gas (in $$J/kg$$.$$K$$) in the process is ____________

Which one of the following statement is TRUE?
