One end of a steel bar is held over a flame until it is red hot. We know from Chapter 13 that when the bar is removed from the flame, the thermal energy will diffuse along the bar until the entire bar has the same equilibrium temperature. Use a microscopic model to explain why the bar’s entropy (that is, its disorder) is increasing during this equilibration process.
