Question
Chapter 10, Problem 10.22PAE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: To understand the concept of a microstate and it relationship to the order or disorder of a system.

Concept Introduction: In theory microstate is an instantaneous image of the location and momentum of each atom and molecule in system.

According to the second law of thermodynamics entropy of a spontaneous process always increases.

ΔStotal= ΔSsys + ΔSsurr > 0

Where,

ΔStotal= total entropy change for the process

ΔSsys = entropy change of the system

ΔSsurr = entropy change of the surrounding
