WHAT IS ENTROPY?
Boltzmann relation

A pure crystalline substance at absolute zero temperature is in perfect order, and its entropy is zero (the third law of thermodynamics).

The level of molecular disorder (entropy) of a substance increases as it melts or evaporates.

Disorganized energy does not create much useful effect, no matter how large it is.
2

The paddle-wheel work done on a gas increases the level of disorder (entropy) of the gas, and thus energy is degraded during this process. In the absence of friction, raising a weight by a rotating shaft does not create any disorder (entropy), and thus energy is not degraded during this process. During a heat transfer process, the net entropy increases. (The increase in the entropy of the cold body more than offsets the decrease in the entropy of the hot body.) 3

ENTROPY

Clausius inequality

Formal definition of entropy

The system considered in the development of the Clausius inequality.

The equality in the Clausius inequality holds for totally or just internally reversible cycles and the inequality for the irreversible ones.
4

A quantity whose cyclic integral is zero (i.e., a property like volume) Entropy is an extensive property of a system.

The net change in volume (a property) during a cycle is always zero. A Special Case: Internally Reversible The entropy change between two specified states is the same whether the process is reversible or irreversible.

Isothermal Heat Transfer Processes

This equation is particularly useful for determining the entropy changes of thermal energy reservoirs.

    ANS: Both NO and NO2 are gases under standard conditions. Each molecule of NO2 has three atoms, and each molecule of NO has two atoms. Thus, NO2 should have the larger standard molar entropy than NO. Molecules with many atoms has more variations in how it can vibrate than a molecule with fewer atoms. This means more ways to distribute energy- or greater energy dispersal at any given temperature and larger entropy.…

    The First Law of Thermodynamics, also known as the Law of Conservation of Energy, states that energy can be neither created nor destroyed. Thus, the total energy within a system is a constant, although a system can turn one form of energy into another, the net output can never be greater than the input. The Second Law of Thermodynamics, also known as the Law of…

    According to K.C.Cole ("The Arrow of Time," 75 Readings), entropy is a very common phenomenon in the universe which can be change by giving energy though. Entropy is defied as the measurement of irreversible disorder. It grows naturally when time passes; on the other hand, once turning to entropy, the energy is not available to work anymore. Entropy not only exist physiologically but also sociologically; nevertheless, order do survive in the nature and life. Because things intent to go maximum of disorder due to the more ways toward it than toward order, we need to give efficient energy constantly to keep things in order. For the things which will cause more entropy, the energy needed to keep them in order is more and expected to be longer.…
