Predict what would happen as the entropy of a system approaches 100%.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

As entropy is a measure of disorder or randomness in a system, an entropy of 100% would mean that there is maximum disorder and randomness in the system. Therefore, there would be little order in the system. All motion would not stop because even at high entropy there would still be random motion, but it would not have a defined direction or purpose. Heat would not decrease as entropy and heat are not directly related.
