Entropy is a measure of disorder or information content in a system, first postulated by [[Lazare Carnot]] in 1803.
Entropy is the thermodynamic property which trends toward equilibrium, first postulated by [[Lazare Carnot]] in 1803.
The [[second law of thermodynamics]] states that entropy will never decrease over time within a [[closed system]], defining a closed system as one in which neither matter nor energy may enter or leave.
