This may not be the thread to ask in, but: I had never heard of the 'Mpemba effect' until this morning. I was aware of claims that hot... -

Like.
You mean Rudolf Clausius. I find the introduction of entropy among the most challenging didactic task in (theoretical) physics teaching... -
binis reacted to Chestermiller's post in the thread Undergrad Why is Entropy defined as a fraction of heat over temperature? with
Agree.
I don't regard entropy and entropy change to be directly related to heat at all. The entropy of a substance or system can change... -

May be it would rather make you confuse more, what is temperature T ? Surely we know the ways how to measure it and make use of it in... -

Informative.
This response doesn't make any sense to me. If I have two bodies of mass M and heat capacity C, with one at absolute temperature... -

Actually you should write deltaS = Q / T or dS = dQ / T. I've written a short text on exactly this and I also recommend Chestermiller's... -

See my Physics Forums Insights Article on entropy and the 2nd law of thermodynamics... -

From differential form we get definition of entropy S_2-S_1 =\int_1^2 \frac{dQ}{T} where integration path from state 1 to state 2 is any... -

Your answer is great, but I feel like it's a bit far from what I was trying to achieve. For instance, but I was trying to imagine what... -

Agree.
The thermal energy of a classical ideal gas is ##U=f k_{\text{B}} N T/2##, where ##f## is the number of "relevant degrees of freedom"...
