Decrease of Entropy and Chemical Reactions
نویسنده
چکیده
The chemical reactions are very complex, and include oscillation, condensation, catalyst and self-organization, etc. In these case changes of entropy may increase or decrease. The second law of thermodynamics is based on an isolated system and statistical independence. If fluctuations magnified due to internal interactions exist in the system, entropy will decrease possibly. In chemical reactions there are various internal interactions, so that some ordering processes with decrease of entropy are possible on an isolated system. For example, a simplifying Fokker-Planck equation is solved, and the hysteresis as limit cycle is discussed.

Transient Entropy Generation Analysis During Wustite Pellet Reduction to Sponge Iron
The present study carefully examined entropy generation during wustite pellet reduction to sponge iron. The finite volume method was used to solve the governing equations. The grain model was used to simulate the reaction rate. The reactant gases including carbon monoxide and hydrogen were converted to water and carbon dioxide after wustite reduction. Entropy is generated by heat transfer, mass...
متن کاملA Characterization of the Entropy--Gibbs Transformations
Let h be a finite dimensional complex Hilbert space, b(h)+ be the set of all positive semi-definite operators on h and Phi is a (not necessarily linear) unital map of B(H) + preserving the Entropy-Gibbs transformation. Then there exists either a unitary or an anti-unitary operator U on H such that Phi(A) = UAU* for any B(H) +. Thermodynamics, a branch of physics that is concerned with the study...

متن کاملThermodynamic and Kinetic Investigations of Corrosion Inhibition Behavior of 2-MBT on Steel at a pH of 8
Corrosion results in hazardous and expensive damage to pipelines, vehicles, water and wastewater systems, and even home appliances. One of the most extensively practical methods for protecting metals and alloys against corrosion is to use organic inhibitors. The inhibition capability of 2-Mercaptobenzothiazole (2-MBT) against the corrosion of carbon steel in a 2 M NaCl solution was examined by ...
