Entropy 02.09.10


This is an awesome word that I now sorta understand! The example I found is this: The active nature of entropy is easy to grasp, If a glass of hot liquid is placed in a colder room a potential exists and a flow of heat is spontaneously produced from the cup to the room until it is minimized (or the entropy is maximized) at which point the temperatures are the same and all flows stop. whew!
