heat of disgregation
1Disgregation — In the history of thermodynamics, disgregation was defined in 1862 by Rudolf Clausius as the magnitude of the degree in which the molecules of a body are separated from each other.[1] This term was modeled on certain passages in French physicist… …
2Entropy — This article is about entropy in thermodynamics. For entropy in information theory, see Entropy (information theory). For a comparison of entropy in information theory with entropy in thermodynamics, see Entropy in thermodynamics and information… …
3Entropy (order and disorder) — Boltzmann s molecules (1896) shown at a rest position in a solid In thermodynamics, entropy is commonly associated with the amount of order, disorder, and/or chaos in a thermodynamic system. This stems from Rudolf Clausius 1862 assertion that any …
4Cause — • Cause, as the correlative of effect, is understood as being that which in any way gives existence to, or contributes towards the existence of, any thing; which produces a result; to which the origin of any thing is to be ascribed Catholic… …
5Temperatur [1] — Temperatur (von temperare, mäßigen). Die Wärme kann erfahrungsgemäß von einem Körper auf einen andern übergehen. Es zeigt sich dies am Uebergange der Wärmewirkungen. Zwei Körper A und B heißen gleichwarm oder von gleicher Temperatur, wenn bei… …
