Entropy - 2nd Law of Thermodynamics - Enthalpy & Microstates
This chemistry video tutorial provides a basic introduction into entropy, enthalpy, and the 2nd law of thermodynamics which states that the entropy change of the universe is always positive for a spontaneous process. It contains plenty of multiple choice practice problems on entropy and enthalpy.
Here is a list of topics:
1. Identifying spontaneous processes and nonspontaneous processes
2. Positional Probability & Microstates
3. How To Calculate The Number of Microstates
4. Heads and Tails Probability Example
5. Entropy Description - Disorder vs Order
6. Entropy of the Universe, System, and Surroundings
7. Entropy change of the universe is zero for a reversible process at equilibrium
8. Predicting The Sign of The Entropy of a System Using Heat Flow
9. Positional Entropy of Solids, Liquids, and Gases
10. Relationship Between Entropy and Temperature
11. Relationship Between Entropy, Volume, and Pressure
12. Predicting The Sign of Entropy For Physical Processes - Condensation, Deposition, Freezing, and Sublimation
13. Entropy and Molecular Complexity - Molar Mass of Number of Atoms
14. Predicting The Sign of Entropy For Chemical Reactions
15. Entropy Change Calculations Given Data Table With Standard Entropy Values
17. Entropy Change of Mixing a Solute With a Solvent to Make a Salt Water Solution
18. How To Calculate The Missing Standard Entropy Value of a Compound Given The Standard Entropy Change of a Reaction
