Entropy


1. What is entropy? From a microscopic point of view

2. What is entropy? From a macroscopic point of view

Comments:

Entropy is a very important concept in physics. The first article explains what entropy is and why it “always” increases. The second article explains what entropy is from a macroscopic point of view. It can be read independently of the first one. These articles serve as prerequisites for the section “Statistical Mechanics.”
