Question

What is an ideal gas ?

Solution
  • At the macroscopic scale : a perfect gas is a (real !) gas studied at low pressures (less than a few bars, is normal atmospheric pressure).

  • At the microscopic scale : the particles of an ideal gas are punctual and do not interact with each other but only with the wall of the container they occupy during elastic collisions.

Question

What is the statistical interpretation of entropy ?

Solution

Entropy is related to the molecular disorder. The greater entropy of a system, the more disorder.

Thus, the entropy of a pure substance from a liquid to a gaseous state increases.
