The following relationships regarding entropy (S) and the number of microstates in a system (W) are true at 0 K:

a. S = 0, W = 0

b. S = 1, W = 0

c. S = 0, W = 1

d. S = 213.7, W = 7.69 x 1034

e. S = -213.7, W = 7.69 x 1034

Answer #1

At 0 K, the number of microstates in a system ( W) are 1. The relation between entropy (S) and the number of microstates in system(W) is given by S = 2.303 klog (W)

S = 2.303*k*log(1) = 0 because log(1) = 0.
