How to determine the entropy change in a system with heat and mass transfer?

So, my question is How to describe the change in entropy: $S_1'=?, S_2'=?$ Let $S_1'=S_1+\delta S_1, S_2'=S_2+\delta S_2$. … the transferred amount of gas mixes ideally with the contents of the chamber thus resulting in some entropy production. $^*$ according to Callen it should be at most 0.1 of sound speed. …
