According to the second law of thermodynamics does entropy increase in a cold system?
That depends on what you mean by "cold" system. Entropy in any system can do one of three things: increase, decrease, or remain constant. If the system is closed, then entropy will only ever increase. If the system is open, entropy within it can do any of the three, provided there is a corresponding change in entropy outside the system (energy must come from or go to somewhere to effect an entropy change). The absolute amount of energy in the system makes no difference to the entropy of it. It is whether you have an open or closed system that counts.
How does entropy change in gas reactions?
Reactions that increase the moles of gas will increase in entropy.
Which thermodynamic law has to do with entropy?
The second law of thermodynamics, generally stated, is that the entropy of an isolated system always increases in any natural process where change occurs. In a system at equilibrium, of course, the entropy remains constant.
What describes the entropy change as a solid is made from a liquid and solid?
In this case the entropy increase.
What describes the entropy change as a solution is made from a liquid and a solid?
In this case the entropy increase.

What is positive change in thermodynamics?
a positive change is an increase in potential energy.
Which would represent an increase in entropy?

How does the entropy change in the reaction 2C3H6 (g) plus 9O (g) 6CO2(g)?
The entropy increase in this reaction.

How it is possible for this to happen without violating the second law of thermodynamics?
Whats "this"? If "this" is what I think it is then you are having a problem with entropy change. What you need to consider is the entropy change of the surroundings as well which you of course should know because you know how much energy is being exchanged with the surroundings.
