| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| entropy (S) | an extensive property in a closed system |
| change in entropy | is the same for all the processes (both reversible and irreversible) between the two states, |
| Specific entropy (s) | entropy per unit mass; an intensive property |
| Mole specific entropy | units: kJ/kmol *K or Btu/lbmol * R |
| isentropic process | → reversible & adiabatic |
| entropy transfer | is positive if Q>0. s no entropy transfer associated with work |
| Entropy production | is positive for irreversible process and zero for reversible process |
| Statistical thermodynamics using microscopic viewpoint relates | entropy to the disorder of the system. |
