2.6 Entropy (Thermal Physics) (Schroeder)

Having experience with calculating multiplicities, let's get to the definition of Entropy. We'll calculate entropy for Einstein Solids and the Ideal Gas. We'll look at how Entropy is created, including the Entropy of Mixing. We'll talk about the Gibbs Paradox and Maxwell's Daemon. Finally, we'll look at the heat death of the universe and the Big Bang. In future sections, we'll get a lot of experience with entropy and become more familiar with how it works in relation to other thermodynamic properties.

The textbook I am using is: Schroeder, Daniel V. "An Introduction to Thermal Physics" 1st ed., Addison Wesley Longman, 2005.

thanks for making thermodynamics easier to understand!

I really enjoy your lectures. Thank you!

Thank you sir, But i think there's h ^2 in the denominator, not cubed.
