0.1 Minimum Principles and Thermodynamic Potentials
... The minimum principle for G then states that for all states at a fixed T and P , the equilibrium state is that for which G is a minimum. The proof is very similar to that for A: the second law states that ∆Q ≤ T ∆S or 0 ≥ T ∆S + ∆U + P ∆V , if P is held fixed. But dG = dU − T dS + P dV , so dG ≤ 0 i ...

Fundamentals of chemical thermodynamics and bioenergetics
... (In thermodynamics, such a process is called an adiabatic process.) Thus, we write ΔU = Q + W = W. Because the system does work on the surroundings, W is a negative quantity, and there is a decrease in the system’s energy. The change in energy ΔU is given by ΔU = CΔT, where C is the proportionality ...

If we consider subsystem A to contain and ideal atomic gas, then the number of accessible micro-states of A is simply the number of places in space that may be occupied by the gas atoms. Thus, ...

Entropy in thermodynamics and information theory
There are close parallels between the mathematical expressions for the thermodynamic entropy, usually denoted by S, of a physical system in the statistical thermodynamics established by Ludwig Boltzmann and J. Willard Gibbs in the 1870s, and the information-theoretic entropy, usually expressed as H, of Claude Shannon and Ralph Hartley developed in the 1940s. Shannon, although not initially aware of this similarity, commented on it upon publicizing information theory in A Mathematical Theory of Communication.This article explores what links there are between the two concepts, and how far they can be regarded as connected.
