The Gibbs paradox in classical thermodynamics is a consequence of the erroneous attribution of the entropy of an ideal gas to additive quantities

Volodymyr Ihnatovych

The article reveals the error that in classical thermodynamics leads to the Gibbs paradox. The essence of the error lies in the fact that the entropy of an ideal gas is attributed…

The original Gibbs paradox is the consequence of the erroneous identification of non-identical functions

Volodymyr Ihnatovych

This article presents the results of research into the causes of the Gibbs paradox in the formulation discussed by J. W. Gibbs himself. In this formulation, we are talking about an…

On the incorrectness of the proof of the Gibbs theorem on the entropy of a mixture of ideal gases, which was given by J. W. Gibbs

V. Ihnatovych

There is the Gibbs theorem in thermodynamics, according to which the entropy of the mixture of ideal gases is equal to the sum of the entropies of the components of the mixture. J.…

Philosophical roots of the "eternal" questions in the XX-century theoretical physics

V. Ihnatovych

The evolution of theoretical physics in the XX century differs significantly from that in XVII-XIX centuries. While continuous progress is observed for theoretical physics in XVII-…

Study of the possibility of eliminating the Gibbs paradox within the framework of classical thermodynamics

V. Ihnatovych

The formulas for the entropy of ideal gases mixture and the entropy change in mixing of ideal gases on the basis of the third law of thermodynamics were obtained. It is shown that…

The logical foundations of Gibbs' paradox in classical thermodynamics

V. Ihnatovych

The analysis of the arguments within the limits of the classical thermodynamics that lead to the Gibbs paradox was made. Features of preconditions used in the derivation of the ent…

Inconsistency of Carnot's theorem's proof by William Thomson

V. Ihnatovych

William Thomson proved Carnot's theorem basing on postulate: "It is impossible, by means of inanimate material agency, to derive mechanical effect from any portion of matter by coo…

Inconsistency of Carnot's theorem's proof by R. Clausius

V. Ihnatovych

R. Clausius proved Carnot's theorem basing on postulate "Heat cannot, of itself, pass from a colder to a hotter body". Alexander Gukhman demonstrated that Carnot's theorem can be p…
