- Entropy - Wikipedia
Entropy is a scientific concept, most commonly associated with states of disorder, randomness, or uncertainty
- Entropy - Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Entropy is simply a quantitative measure of what the second law of thermodynamics describes: the spreading of energy until it is evenly spread The meaning of entropy is different in different fields
- Entropy | Definition Equation | Britannica
Entropy, the measure of a system’s thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work Because work is obtained from ordered molecular motion, entropy is also a measure of the molecular disorder, or randomness, of a system

Here is the entropy definition, a look at some important formulas, and examples of entropy Entropy is a measure of the randomness or disorder of a system Its symbol is the capital letter S Typical units are joules per kelvin (J K)
- entropy - Wiktionary, the free dictionary
entropy (countable and uncountable, plural entropies) A measure of the disorder present in a system (Boltzmann definition) A measure of the disorder directly proportional to the natural logarithm of the number of microstates yielding an equivalent thermodynamic macrostate (information theory) Shannon entropy
- Entropy (information theory) - Wikipedia
In information theory, the entropy of a random variable quantifies the average level of uncertainty or information associated with the variable's potential states or possible outcomes This measures the expected amount of information needed to describe the state of the variable, considering the distribution of probabilities across all potential
- Entropy - Encyclopedia of Mathematics
A special case of the entropy of one measure with respect to another is the differential entropy Of the many possible generalizations of the concept of entropy in information theory one of the most important is the following
- Entropy | Brilliant Math Science Wiki
Entropy is the amount of disorder or molecular chaos in a system The microscopic way to measure the disorder is by looking at the individual pieces of the system (i e the microstates) and counting the number of ways a system can be arranged in order to reach its current macrostate
