An explanation of Gibbs Free Energy and the reaction quotient under conditions that are not standard. [15:47]

Explanation of Gibbs free energy and equilibrium constant of dehydration. Example is from the 2015 AP chemistry test. [12:23]

Get an introduction to entropy in this video. [7:26]

Do you know why heat increases entropy? In this video, students can explore entropy and its ability to do work. [7:01]

Using a reversible system to clarify the definition of entropy in thermodynamics. [15:38]

An introduction to entropy and its relationships to various states for a system. [7:27]

University of Nottingham scientists explain what entropy is, using real-life examples in order to illustrate this concept on the molecular level. [4:25]

At the end of this tutorial, the learner will understand the concepts of entropy and negentropy and will understand that systems gradually move towards entropy unless additional energy is introduced to them. It is 3 of 3 in the series...

In the following video Paul Andersen explains how the second law of thermodynamics applies to reversible and irreversible processes. In a reversible process the net change in entropy is zero. In and irreversible process the entropy will...

Entropy is simply the dispersion of matter or energy. Paul Andersen begins with a series of video that show the natural direction of processes. According to the second law of thermodynamics the entropy may never decrease in a closed...

Have you ever heard of a Perpetual Motion Machine? More to the point, have you ever heard of why Perpetual Motion Machines are impossible? One of the reasons is because of the first law of thermodynamics! In this video [10:04] episode of...

A video lecture that derives the Gibb's free energy equation. The video starts by reviewing what a irreversible and reversible process is with explanations and diagrams. While describing irreversible and spontaneous process the formula...

A video lecture explaining that the Maxwell's "demon" does not contradict the second law of thermodynamics. Video begins by reviewing the second law of thermodynamics which states that the universe tends to move towards more entropy....

A video lecture describing how entropy is a macrostate variable that also describes the number of states a system can take on. The video explains some misconceptions about previous given analogies to describe entropy. [9:30]

A video lecture defining a state variable and the characteristics of the value. Understand that to be a valid state variable its value should remained unchanged as it goes around the Carnot cycle. Video shows the math and theory behind...

Understand the intuition to why Gibb's free energy equation can predict whether a reaction is spontaneous in this video lecture. The lecture goes through scenarios to show how a reaction may happen spontaneously based on enthalpy,...

A video lecture discussing the definition of entropy as the change of states and as the heat added to the system divided by the temperature added. The video reconciles these two definitions by going through examples to explain how they...

A video lecture exploring how a derivation of the Gibb's free energy equation shown in some textbooks makes an incorrect assumption. The proof defines entropy as an irreversible transfer of heat which is incorrect and causes the basis...

This lesson will introduce the second law of thermodynamics and define the term entropy, providing examples of entropy.

In chemistry, entropy is the measure of molecular randomness, or disorder. Listen to this crash course, and embrace the chaos as Hank teaches about entropy. [13:41]

Paul Andersen explains how the second law of thermodynamics applies to reversible and irreversible processes. In a reversible process the net change in entropy is zero. In and irreversible process the entropy will always increase in a...

Understand that thermodynamic entropy does not deal with the heat added and the different temperatures at which it is added but rather the reversible heat and temperature to calculate the change in entropy. This video lecture reminds...
