TermDefinition
entropy (S) state function that is a measure of the matter and/or energy dispersal within a system, determined by the number of system microstates often described as a measure of the disorder of the system
Gibbs free energy change (G) thermodynamic property defined in terms of system enthalpy and entropy; all spontaneous processes involve a decrease in G
microstate (W) possible configuration or arrangement of matter and energy within a system
nonspontaneous process process that requires continual input of energy from an external source
reversible process process that takes place so slowly as to be capable of reversing direction in response to an infinitesimally small change in conditions; hypothetical construct that can only be approximated by real processes removed
second law of thermodynamics entropy of the universe increases for a spontaneous process
spontaneous change process that takes place without a continuous input of energy from an external source
standard entropy (S°) entropy for a substance at 1 bar pressure; tabulated values are usually determined at 298.15
K and denoted S°298 standard entropy change (ΔS°) change in entropy for a reaction calculated using the standard entropies, usually at room temperature and denoted Δ°298
standard free energy change (ΔG°) change in free energy for a process occurring under standard conditions (1 bar pressure for gases, 1 M concentration for solutions)
standard free energy of formation (ΔGf° ) change in free energy accompanying the formation of one mole of substance from its elements in their standard states
third law of thermodynamics entropy of a perfect crystal at absolute zero (0 K) is zero

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
