Configurational entropy of hard spheres
We numerically calculate the configurational entropy Sconf of a binary mixture of hard spheres, by using a perturbed Hamiltonian method trapping the system inside a given state, which requires less assumptions than the previous methods [R.J. Speedy, Mol. Phys. 95, 169 (1998)]. We find that Sconf is a decreasing function of packing fraction φ and extrapolates to zero at the Kauzmann packing frac...
متن کاملEntropy-driven demixing in binary hard-core mixtures: From hard spherocylinders towards hard spheres
We present a computer simulation study of a binary mixture of hard spherocylinders with different diameters (D1,D2) and the same lengths (L15L25L). We first study a mixture of spherocylinders with lengths L 515D2 and D150, which can be regarded as a mixture of rodlike colloids and ideal needles. We find clearly an entropy-driven isotropic-isotropic (I-I) demixing transition in this mixture. In ...
متن کاملConfigurational Entropy Revisited
1548 Journal of Chemical Education • Vol. 84 No. 9 September 2007 • www.JCE.DivCHED.org Entropy change is categorized in some prominent general chemistry textbooks as being either positional (configurational) or thermal. Positional entropy focuses on the number of positions in space that can be occupied by the molecules of a system. Then, to the extent that more positions exist after a process ...
متن کاملA New Mixing Rule for Mixtures of Hard Spheres
A mixing rule for the mixtures of hard-spheres is presented which can be reduced to the standard van der Waals mixing rule at low densities. The effectiveness of the mixing rule for the size and energy parameters of lennard-Jones fluid are examined by combining them with an equation of state to calculate thermodynamic properties. The results of calculation are compared with the molecular dy...
متن کاملConfigurational entropy of binary hard-disk glasses: nonexistence of an ideal glass transition.
We study the thermodynamics of a binary hard-disk mixture in which the ratio of disk diameters is kappa=1.4. We use a recently developed molecular dynamics algorithm to calculate the free-volume entropy of glassy configurations and obtain the configurational entropy (degeneracy) of the supercompressed liquid as a function of density. We find that the configurational entropy of the glasses near ...
