Show that during the quasistatic isothermal expansion of a monatomic ideal gas, the change in entropy is related to the heat input Q by the simple formula.                        SΔ= Q/TIn the following chapter I'll prove that this formula is valid for any quasistatic process. Show, however, that it is not valid for the free expansion process described above.
Starting with the Clausius Inequality, ∂S ≥ ∂q/T, can you prove that, under conditions of constant pressure and entropy, for the total entropy to increase, ∂H ≤ 0 J?
Prove that the entropy of mixing of an ideal mixture has aninfinite slope, when plotted vs. x, at x = 0 and x = l.
