0.0 Figure 6.3: (Schematic.) Expansion of gas into vacuum. Suppose we have an insulated tank of gas with a partition down the middle, N molecules on the left side, and none on the right (Figure 6.3). Each side has volume V. At some time a clockwork mechanism suddenly opens the partition and the gas rearranges. What happens to the entropy?
