What is Troutons constant?
From the Wikipedia article (linked to the left of this answer): "Trouton’s rule states that the entropy of vaporization is almost the same value, about 87-88 J K-1 mol-1, for various kinds of liquids. The entropy of vaporization is defined as the ratio between the enthalpy of vaporization and the boiling temperature." This value of 87-88 J K-1 mol-1, Trouton's constant, is also about equal to 10.5 * R, where R is the universal gas constant (R = 8.314472 J K-1 mol-1).
How do you use thermodynamics steam tables?
The steam tables have 16 columns as follows: pressure (absolute), temperature, specific volume of vapor, specific volume of liquid, heat of the liquid, heat of vaporization, total heat of the vapor, entropy of the liquid, entropy of vaporization, entropy of the vapor, internal heat of the liquid, internal heat of vaporization, and internal heat of the vapor (occasionally the external heat of the liquid, vaporization and vapor are included) If the temperature and pressure of steam are known then cross referencing the heat or the volume of a known quantity of the steam can be done. the heat content(enthalpy) of the liquid or vapor can be extrapolated from the chart, as can the entropy and internal energy. The enthalpy less the internal energy = the external energy (or the actual energy required to expand the liquid to a vapor) By determining the starting heat content of steam and final or exhaust heat content of steam the efficiency of a steam engine can be determined. Along with these calculations are the determinations of heat losses, steam quality, loss to entropy,...etc. all calculated using various instruments and the steam tables.
Can there be a limit to entropy in a closed system?
Yes. Once the maximum entropy is reached, it won't increase any further; that means that no energy is left to effect any interesting processes.
How do you use the word entropy in a sentence?
The madman steadily headed toward a state of entropic bliss as he went about his day singing to the flowers. (entropy is the tendency for a system to head towards a state of maximum randomness.)
What is true about entropy?
Entropy is not change. Entropy is disorder.
Calculate the entropy of vaporization per mole of ethanol Given enthalpy change is 109.8 JK-1 mol-1 and boiling point of ethanol is 78.50C?
OK.With entalpy od vaporization and temperature of vaporization is very easy to calculate entropy of vaporization of etanol.So the equation to calculate this is:Delta_S=-Delta_H/TbWhere:Delta_S= Entropy of vaporizationDelta_H=Entalpy of vaporizationTb= Normal Boiling point temperatureSo the Delta_S become:Delta_S=-(-109000.8)/(78.5+273)Delta_S=310.1 J.mol-1.K-1
What is the state of having the least organized matter?
Maximum entropy.
What is heat death how you can relate this term to entropy?
Heat death is a hypothetical situation in which there is no more usable energy in the Universe. In relation to entropy, it means that entropy is at its maximum - it can't increase any more.
When will it be the end of time?
when jesus christ wants it to be. watch for him! When entropy increases to maximum.

The second law of thermodynamics concludes that all things are moving towards.....?
Equilibrium and maximum entropy (for the universe).

In what condition does a particle act most like a ideal gas?
high temperatures, and low pressure. This increases the amount of entropy in the system. An ideal gas is created when entropy is at maximum value, which has never been reached.
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.
