Entropy is everywhere, even in our daily life. We don't realize it. For example, there are two libraries A and B. Both these libraries contain exactly the same number of books. All the titles available in library A are available in library B as well. Imagine that library A is well stacked and library B is just a huge pile of books and all the books are just dumped. As per the first law of thermodynamics, both these libraries are equal, (energy is conserved). But anyone who wants to take a book and do some reading will prefer library A only, which is well stacked and ordered ( Less entropy). Library A has less entropy and more order. While B has higher entropy and less order. We need to spend energy to bring it to order. So basically entropy is a measure of disorder or randomness. Higher the disorder higher the entropy. We cannot measure/calculate entropy for all the process or in other words it is very difficult to measure the entropy for some processes. There are equations for some standard engineering and chemical processes to calculate entropy. If entropy associated with a process is very high, the process tends to have low efficiency.

I think this was the best explanation of entropy I've seen. I always hated when professors described it as disorder to me because that begs the question, 'well what is disorder?' That is why I am always so careful to describe the statistics of entropy to my first year chemistry students. My one suggestion for your video would be to talk about translational entropy instead of vibrational/rotational energy because students tend to have a very difficult time conceptualizing bond energy unless you explicitly describe it in more detail than just stored energy, whereas kinetic energy is more intuitive for them.

"I think this was the best explanation of entropy I've seen. I always hated when professors described it as disorder to me because that begs the question, 'well what is disorder?'" That has always been a bad definition to me also. "Disorder" is both subjective and even if it is disorder... we need another explanation about what disorder is. Leading us further and further away from understanding entropy.

I read a joke when I was in the university about a professor who gave the same question for decades in exams asking pupils to define entropy. Several years later a colleague questioned why he was repeating the said question. The professor replied that although the question about entropy is same all the time I simply change the answer! This video is an excellent example of how confusing entropy can get.

I heard it was Einstein and the exam was about general relativity or something like that. He would give the same questions. When other professors asked him to change his questions, he said answers are always changing. It's not that he's changing the answers, it's the scientific discoveries. Without science changing the answers, one professor cannot have different answers to the same question.

Not a measure of energy configurations at all. When Clausius defined entropy as the sum of infinitesimal changes in heat at temperature T, he was talking specifically about heat as a macro quantity. Entropy is a mathematical statement of the 2nd law of thermodynamics which determines the direction of heat transfer in a process. If the process is reversible, entropy is zero and if irreversible, entropy is positive. Simple stuff, actually.

The thing is, even if the unlikely happens once, you're still rolling that metaphysical quintillion-sided dice over and over again and the next shift in energy is still more likely to spread out again than otherwise. So you probably will never have to worry about your coffee getting hotter on its own or the mug exploding at random.

If you look at the glass of ice in its small scale, you’ll probably observe that some of the “units” are getting some energy here and there, thus getting hotter in some places counter intuitively, but as you look at the bigger picture, that gets negligeable, and in the long term it will cool. Also it would need to happen repeatedly in order to cool down, since its a continuous process. Another thing to take account is that in the macro world it might have no chance to happen, since when reaching a certain amount of factors the thing gets too defined to act otherwise, for example kicking a ball: there might be a chance for some energy to spread more to the right or to the left of the ball, but actual no chance for the compound to move in the opposite direction, the chances might just be zero for that, since all thought there could be a set of possibilities, that set is not infinite, rather limited. The conclusion is that in nature, not anything can happen, a defined amount of things in a point in time can happen, of which I wonder a lot about its actual nature and functioning, real randomness etc. These are just some of my thoughts, hope to give insight not certainty.

Very well put explanation. But to sum up this video for anyone who finds this. Entropy: A term of thermodynamics that (in laments terms) talks about the statistical probability of energy dispersion (and does it in some incredibly confusing ways). I’ve gotten this questions as well, it isn’t a force or aspect like gravity in physics, like this video said entropy is just what we use to describe things, it itself doesn’t do anything.

The guy at the end definitely died when his energy “spread out”. With enough time, everything dies. That’s entropy. Even if that hot object got hotter, it wouldn’t be eternal, and it would eventually cool again. We as human base our lives and governing systems around people, beliefs, and current systems that are suspect to entropy. So there’s a seemingly long process of ebb and flow, though we, and civilization as we know it will eventually come to an end. Interesting stuff!

I think understanding that energy dispersal is the key factor can be confusing for some because when explaining that energy dispersal is more likely because it’s statistically what happens feels like saying “the answer is the answer because it is”. I think this video did a great job connecting the two. What is causing energy dispersal to be more statistically evident? I think of it as “if a system adopts more micro states(and is therefore more stable ) then loss of energy/cooling effect will be a spontaneous process.

Conclusion : - Entropy can happen at everytime. - Chances of entropy if it is spread out is high as energy will move around and will move to other object. - When both of the entropy of the object is going to stabilise, both object will have same temperature. - It have 13% chances for one object to be hotter and another object to be colder as energy will move around... and theoritically will only happen in vacuum because the energy will also lost to the air surrounding... - Quanta is the unit of energy... - More energy higher the temperature. .... Anyway for my own opinion I think that entropy is related to probability and combination and even permutation meaning it is related to additional mathematics. More I think that the energy will be stabilise or will be equal in each object all is because of the probability of the entropy. For real I only understand most of the video but some I really do not understand it ... it could be 80% to 85% understand and 20% to 15% not... And wait my question here is... • will the size determine the entropy and the energy transfer between the bond and will effect the temperature changes in the object? • Will energy still move from colder to hotter one and will it only happen in vacuum or is it possible to happen at the normal environment with air? • Is Earth an example of entropy? And is Sun or other Star the example of entrophy?

I agree that some of these videos complicate rather than simplify, They think they are lecturing to a physics class. One explanation I heard was that entropy is the movement of energy (heat) to level with the surrounding environment. A cup of hot coffee left on a kitchen table will eventually loose energy, heat, until it is at room temperature. This is happening on a universal scale. A tendency for energy to level off. I think it was Neil DeGrassTyson that gave this explanation.

So basically, Entropy is the measurement of the chaos, which means the measurement of the probability of energy configurations. The atoms that make up the body are linked by bonds, and Quantas (an energy unit) is stored in them. The quantas can move however they want inside the different bonds in the same body, each one of the positions of quanta configuration is called a microstate. When two bodies with a different number of quantas meet, the quantas move from one body to another creating many many many probable microstates, and some of those microstates indicate the same number of energy distribution. When calculating the number of microstates where two bodies achieve the same number of quantas in the end, it's always higher than the other potential configurations, and the bigger the object the less probable that a cold body will get colder after meeting a hot body, and that's why it never occurs, it's simply probability. Oh and ofc, energy is always conserved but never in the same entropy, the lower entropy is the more concentrated it is and the better quality it is. On the other hand if it's high, it's not really high quality. Now Let's talk about something more interesting, imagine having probability manipulation, isn't controlling entropy the best thing anyone can do ? Imagine bringing ice to a volcano and showing people the ice getting colder, how cool would that be.

Anim Mouse We do not know how to define energy independent of context. For example, we can define and measure electrical energy in the context of an electrical system, like a light bulb. However, if we change context to a mechanical system, we need to redefine what we mean by energy and how we measure it. For example, a body in motion has kinetic energy. In physics, we define kinetic energy and we are able to measure it.

"If we change the system to mechanical we need to redefine energy" Energy is always the capacity to do work, even if you change wind energy to mechanical energy, it still do work, just like phones in different brand, they still work like a normal phone like texting, etc. "By how we measure it" Of course, you cannot measure wind energy using solar panels. But the unit of energy is always Joules, no matter what.

@@AnimMouse Energy really does not define anything. Energy is a force to do work, yes. But energy in interstellar space or other terms makes energy different. Energy is now a power source for stars and things and probably the particles that does work. It is everywhere and cannot be defined except for multiple definitions and iterations. Quantum physics also describes energy as a force to do work but it also describes energy as a concept or thing.

So “the tendency for things to become more disordered” is another way of saying “it’s more likely for the energy in things to spread out more”...?

Not at all. Can you even give a useful definition of disorder? Entropy is about the distribution of energy in a macroscopic system. This is discussed at length in my book, Energy and Entropy: A Dynamic Duo.

If I understood correctly... The more energy an object has, the more heat it will produce. The energy, named with the unit "quanta", is present in the bonds sticking atoms together, and all the placement of the quantas in the solid in a given moment is called "microstate". The quantas can be everywhere inside the solid as long as they are inside a bond, which means there are A LOT of places where the quantas can place themselves inside the solid, which also means there are a lot of microstates possible for a solid because one tiny difference of placement of one quanta can be considered as a different microstate than the other. It's just like a how a chessboard is at a certain state when none of the players are moving their pieces, each piece representing a quanta, but when one of them does a move, making a piece change position the nature of the chessboard changes. It's the same here, a microstate is a given state of the solid, but when a single quanta changes position, it is considered as a totally different microstate. However, there are microstates that are more likely to exist than others, and inside those more likely microstates, the quantas are more spread, because energy (quantas) tends to spread, and the energy is the most spread when solids have the same amount of quantas, so the same amount of energy. Since the more energy an object has, the more heat it produces, this explains why a hot object will cool down and a cold object will heaten when the two are put next to each other, because the hot object will give energy to the cold object, making it contain more quantas, so more heat. The energy configuration they seek is the one where they both have the same amount of quantas (in the case of the video, 4 quantas each. Note that energy configuration is the number of quantas they have whereas microstate is all the different positions of the quantas they have combined.), so the microstates where the energy configuration corresponds to the same amount of quanta are always more likely to happen, due to the fact that the quantas/energy tends to spread. This is entropy. The measurement of the chance of a certain energy configuration to occur. The higher the entropy, the most equal amount of quantas the solids will have, because lile we said, the energy is the most spread when the solids have an equal amount of quantas. So the entropy measures how spread the quantas inside solids are. ...I still don't understand, and now I have a painful headache.

This was a very good explanation. Entropy is a measure of uncertainty related to a random variable or message in information theory. Entropy is correlated with the quantity of messages or outcomes that a system is capable of producing, and as the quantity of messages or outcomes grows, so does the entropy.
