Entropy is a measure of the amount of disorder a system has. More accurately the amount of work that can be extracted from a system. The more entropy a system has the less work that can be done. 1kg of steam at 500 degrees can do lots more work than a kilo of warm water. Entropy always increases in a closed system. Entropy is why everything eventually breaks down.
What else can I help you with?
What is the scientific measure of disorder is called?
This is called entropy.
What is the measure of disorder and randomness?
Entropy is the measure of system randomness.
What is meant by adiabatic?
Of, relating to, or being a reversible thermodynamic process that occurs without gain or loss of heat and without a change in entropy. Source: Anwers.com
How does the entropy change in the reaction 2c3h6g 9o2g 6co2g 6h2og?
The entropy change in a reaction can be calculated by comparing the entropy of the products to the entropy of the reactants. Without specific entropy values provided, it is difficult to determine the exact change. However, in general, the entropy change is positive in reactions where the products have higher entropy than the reactants, indicating an increase in disorder.
Why is entropy irreversible?
It's not that entropy can't be reversed, it's that the entropy of the universe is always increasing. That means that while you can reduce the entropy of something, the entropy of another thing must go up even more so that in total, the entropy goes up.
What does the second law of thermodynamic say about entropy?
The entropy of the universe is increasing
What are the units of entropy and how do they relate to the measurement of disorder in a system?
The units of entropy are joules per kelvin (J/K). Entropy is a measure of disorder in a system, with higher entropy indicating greater disorder. The relationship between entropy and disorder is that as entropy increases, the disorder in a system also increases.
What state of matter has the least entropy?
entropy is the measure of randomness of particles higher is randomness higher is the entropy so solids have least entropy due to least randomness.
How do you revers entropy?
Entropy, as far as we are aware, cannot be reversed.
What happens as a solution becomes diluted in entropy?
Its entropy increases.
When was Port Entropy created?
Port Entropy was created in 2009.
When was Entropy - album - created?
Entropy - album - was created in 2005.
