consider two physical systems, Al and A2, the two systems into thermal contact with eachother, thus allowing the possibility of exchange of energy between the two; this can be doneby sliding in a conducting wall and removing the impervious one. The two systems are stillseparated by a rigid, impenetrable wall; show that the absolute value of the entropy of agiven physical system in terms of the total number of microstates is S = k Lnn

Let there is two isolated system A1 and A2 with two entropies S1 and S2 and microstates are Ω1 and…

Pressure is applied isothermally to a container that holds a liquid. Assuming the liquid is compressible, what has happened to the entropy? The entropy has decreased because the applied pressure results in the particles being less free to move, making their positions more predictable. The entropy has increased because the applied pressure results in heat being transferred from the environment to the system. The entropy has increased because the particles move more rapidly at higher pressure, making their velocities less predictable. None of the above.
Consider 4.00 mol of an ideal gas with a constant‑volume molar specific heat of 12.5 J/(mol·K), an initial temperature of 26.8 ∘C, and an initial pressure of 5.710×104 Pa. The state of the gas is then changed to a final temperature of 48.1 ∘C and a final pressure of 3.090×104 Pa. What is the change in the entropy Δ? of the gas during this process? The gas constant is 8.31 J/(mol·K).
Suppose you put a cube of ice of mass 100 g into a glass of water at just above 0°C. When the ice melts, about 33 kJ of energy is absorbed from the surroundings as heat. What is the change in entropy of (a) the sample (the ice) and (b) the surroundings (the glass of water)?
If you are told that the entropy of a system is zero, what do you know about the system?
A large factory furnace maintained at 170 ∘C at its outer surface is wrapped in an insulating blanket of thermal conductivity 5.50×10−2 W/(m⋅K) which is thick enough that the outer surface of the insulation is at 43.0 ∘C while heat escapes from the furnace at a steady rate of 140 W for each square meter of surface area. By how much does each square meter of the furnace change the entropy of the factory every second?
Suppose that 10 distinguishable particles are equipartitioned in a container that has 100 equal-sized compartments. What is the entropy on this system?
