To donate:

We will compare the probability of a certain event happening like what is the probability of 6 molecules on one half of the box to the 6 molecules evenly distributed in the entire box? Or what is the probability of 6 molecules evenly distributed in a box to 6 molecules in one half of the box?

Man I’ve started following a while ago after I kept coming back to your videos for EM and quantum mech and you are amazing thanks for sticking with this. I’ve recommended to 5 friends already. You explain everything so elegantly and simply that it just makes sense. You clearly know all your stuff deeply and are one of the best profs I’ve seen. Hope you have a nice day and know that I really like you. I don’t even take thermo

Could you explain a probability greater than 1? I.e. equal to 64?

interesting, have a thermodynamics exam in a few days...
I really like this subject, its very deep

So the entropy has locally decreased from V1 to V2?
