Gibbs’ paradox—the apparent discontinuity in mixing entropy for gases of varying similarity and the seeming reversibility of mixing-separation cycles—has resisted fully satisfactory resolution for 150 years. We present a solution based on categorical state theory, which posits that physical con f igurations are…

The energy and entropy, expressed in free energy, determine the behavior of a system. Therefore, infinite knowledge of these two quantities leads to precise prediction of the system's trajectories. Here, we study how the energy and entropy affect the distribution of a two-component system in a box. First, using a…

Providing a simple description of entropy as the foundation of thermodynamics is necessary for researchers in explaining physical phenomena in the universe. Here we dive deep into the meaning of entropy starting from the basics and ending with the Newton's second law of motion which may be rooted in a hidden dimension…

Causality is the relationship between causes and effects. Following Relativity, any cause of an event must always be in the past light cone of the event itself, but causes and effect must always be related to some interactions. In this paper, causality is developed as a consequence of the analysis of the Einstein…

During protein folding, proteins transition from a disordered polymer into a globular structure, markedly decreasing their conformational degrees of freedom and consequently leading to a substantial reduction in entropy. Nonetheless, folded proteins still retain significant entropy as they fluctuate between the…

Several experimental thermochemical techniques—adiabatic calorimetry, differential scanning calorimetry, drop calorimetry, and drop solution calorimetry—were employed to obtain the heat capacity dependences and the enthalpy of formation of the single-phase complex-composition (“high-entropy”) oxide (MgCoNiCuZn)0.2O…
