Entropy is a measure of disorder…

But what does that mean?

Micro vs Macro States

Entropy is about probability.It is very improbable that we will ever observe a process

that decreases the entropy of a real physical process.

In the limit as N goes to infinity, probability becomes

fact.Consider the air in this room.

Entropy – it’s different things to different people

Reversible vs. Irreversible Irreversible

– Free expansion (adiabatic-ish)– Heat conduction– Scrambling Eggs, Bar room fight

Reversible– Adiabatic expansion– Constant T expansion (at least for the

gas)– Ice melting (sort of)

Isolated vs Open Systems

Water runs over a waterfall. What kind of process is this?

A. ReversibleB. Irreversible

Reversible process - one that works equally well in reverse, one whose effect you can undo

Irreversible process - one you cannot undo or will not spontaneously run in reverse

Pretty much all spontaneous events in nature are irreversible

irreversible reversible scrambling eggs ice liquid at 0oC eating fish

liquid steam at 100oC

Law of Increasing Disorder (2nd Law of Thermodynamics)

Changes occurring in natural systems always proceed in such a way that the total amount of disorder in a closed system never decreases, and it increases in irreversible processes.

2 Ne 9:28

O that cunning plan of the evil one! O the vainness, and the frailties, and the foolishness of men! When they are learned they think they are wise, and they hearken not unto the counsel of God, for they set it aside, supposing they know of themselves, wherefore, their wisdom is foolishness and it profiteth them not. And they shall perish.
