Calculate the Entropy and prove that if Gibbs paradox exist or not
Answer
We have already known that entropy is the negative derivation of Helmholtz Free Energy written as :
Therefore, we should
fi
nd the Helmholtz using :
So, we will get
F = − kTln
(
(2πmkT)3N/2

)
By extracting
variable T, we get
F = − kTln
(
(2πmk)3N/2

)
3. By applying ln to the equation :
F = − kTln
(

4. Suppose there is a gas of the same type occupying two di
ff
erent spaces with same volume V, same temperature T, same pressure p, number of the
same N particles, so they will have the same entropy S and energy the same total U. When the two spaces are combined, the previously mentioned
quantities will become
Gibbs paradox
V,T,P,N, and U V,T,P,N, and U 2V,T,P,2N, and 2U
From the
fi

that the Entropy will be 2
