∆ S = nR ln(V2/V1)
The direction of spontaneous change is
from a situation in which the gas is in V1
to one in which it is in V2
That is, from a state with low probability of
occurring to one of a maximum probability.
When molecules are randomly and uniformly mixed
The direction of spontaneous change is from a less
probable state to a most probable state
Gas A Gas B
qH is negative COP = qC /w
For irreversible expansion, qirrv < qrev Surrounding is very large compared
to system
∆ S = qrev/T > qirv/T
dSsurr = dqsurr / Tsurr
But ∆Srev = ∆Sirrv = ∆S => ∆S > qirrv/T ∆ Ssurr = qsurr / Tsurr
Entropy Change of the Universe:
This is true for any isolated system; => The Second Law of Thermodynamics
Entropy Change Due to Phase Transitions:
For Gas A:
∆ SA = nA R ln(VA+VB)/VA
For Gas B:
∆ SB = nB R ln(VA+VB)/VB
ST = ∫CP dln T
Entropy as a Function of Temperature and Volume:
S = S(T, V) U = U(T, V)
dS = (∂S/∂T)V dT + (∂S/∂V)T dV dU = (∂U/∂T)V dT + (∂U/∂V)T dV
H = H(T, P) S = S(T, P)
(∂2H/∂P∂T) = (∂2H/∂T∂P)
(∂2S/∂T∂P) = 1/T [(∂2H/∂T∂P) − (∂ V/∂T)P] − (1/T )[(∂H/∂P)T − V]
