Consider two blocks of copper. Block A contains 800 atoms and initially has a total of 20 quanta of energy. Block B contains 200 atoms and initially has 80 quanta of energy. The two blocks are placed in contact with each other, inside an insulated container (so no thermal energy can be exchanged with the surroundings).After waiting for a long time (for example, an hour), which of the following would you expect to be true?
A. The entropy of block A is equal to the entropy of block B.
B. Approximately 50 quanta of energy are in block A, and approximately 50 quanta of energy are in block B.
C. Approximately 80 quanta of energy are in block A, and approximately 20 quanta of energy are in block B.
D. The temperature of block A and the temperature of block B are equal.

- Polymers, like rubber, are made of very long molecules, usually tangled up in a configuration that has lots of entropy. As a very crude model of a rubber band, consider a chain of N links, each of length L Imagine that each link has only two possible states, pointing either left or right. The total length L of the rubber band is the net displacement from the beginning of the first link to the end of the last link.
