1. Show that the change in entropy for a fixed amount of ideal gas held at a constant
temperature undergoing a volume change is given by the simple equation
AS = NkB In
Hint: Start with the equation
M
dS =
du + (Œ) dv - Ž (#) an,
dU
du+av-dN;
j=1
Why doesn't the equation for the entropy of an ideal gas depend on the strength of the
intermolecular forces for the gas?
