Review text

Die spontane Mischung unterscheidbarer Stoffe vermehrt die Entropie um einen Betrag, der nur von den Mengen der Stoffe abhängt. Bei nicht unterscheidbaren Stoffen ist der Betrag null. Das Paradoxon des plötzlichen Verschwindens der Mischungs-Entropie beim Übergang zur Gleichheit wird durch die thermodynamische Betrachtung der reversiblen Mischung, die bei Vorgabe einer nur endlichen Zahl von Schritten als Entropiezunahme eine Funktion des Grades der Unterscheidbarkeit liefert, entschärft.
