How do we measure entropy?
How do we measure entropy?
Open in App
Solution
- Entropy is the measure of unit temperature required to estimate the amount of thermal energy of a device that is unavailable for work.
- Entropy can also be measured as a molecular disorder, or randomness, of a system.
- law of thermodynamics states that the entropy at absolute zero of any perfectly ordered, the crystalline material is zero. Entropy has a positive value at temperatures greater than absolute zero, which is used to calculate a substance’s absolute entropy.
