    Hey thanks... I now get a clearer picture :)

    Graduate Solve Entropy vs Quality Problem

    look let's consider air at 1000 K at 1000 K it has a high entropy due to high disorderness, correct? thus it is very difficult to use it for energy generation, for example to rotate a turbine. Where as it has a high quality also due to HIGH temperature which claims that v can use it easily...

    Graduate Solve Entropy vs Quality Problem

    but this is still not clear, both are related to second law of thermodynamics and there must b a relation b/w them. if neone can guide me thru ths misery it would b appreciated

    Graduate Solve Entropy vs Quality Problem

    I read that the higher the temperature of a substance (for example gas) the higher the quality to extract work from it. But for the same substance, at same temperature, it would have high entropy as well which accounts for disorderness and hence less availibility of energy. Please help me...

    Graduate Why is the phenomenon of increasing entropy not as straightforward as it seems?

    Entropy comments If the enenrgy would be transfrerred from high-energy particle to lower ones, then the all the chemical reactions in the universe would've gone to completion, but it does not work this way. THe reaction comes to halt when the entropy generated is maximum, i.e. the products...
