Document Summary

Che 132 lecture 4: thermodynamics continued: spontaneous processes occur without an energy input, entropy=s and it is a state function, the configurational entropy of a system is s=k ln(w). If gibbs free energy is negative then the process is spontaneous. If the gibbs free energy is positive then the process is non spontaneous. This leads to there being an increased number of micro states available. If the change in entropy of the universe is greater than or less than zero, then the process is irreversible.
