Not chelation, but chelate effect can be explained predominantly with entropy factor. Chelate effect describes about enhanced affinity of chelating ligands for a metal ion in comparison to the affinity of a collection of similar non chelating (monodentate) ligands for the same metal.

So, when we compare the 2 cases we observe that the entropy factor favours the chelate formation because the reactants were lesser (because of polydenticity).

I hope you got your answer.

Entropy increases when heat is added because the particles do what?

When heat is added, the particles in a system gain energy and move more freely, increasing their randomness and disorder. This leads to an increase in entropy because there are more possible arrangements and microstates for the particles to occupy.
