| Thermodynamic laws | Outcomes |
|---|---|
| Zeroth law introduces | Temperature |
| First law introduces | Energy |
| Second law introduces | Entropy |
The Second Law of Thermodynamics:
The entropy of an isolated system not in equilibrium will tend to increase over time, approaching a maximum value at equilibrium.
The Second Law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of an isolated system always increases over time, or remains constant in ideal cases where the system is in a steady state or undergoing a reversible process. This increase in entropy accounts for the irreversibility of natural processes.
