3.2 Entropy and Heat (Thermal Physics) (Schroeder)
We've seen how temperature and entropy relate, so now let's look at how heat and entropy are related. It all comes down to the heat capacity. The simple formula dS = Q/T is also useful for calculating the entropy when we don't have a convenient model to calculate the multiplicities. We also discuss what happens as T approaches 0, and make some observations about "residual entropy" and how the heat capacity should behave as we approach 0 K.
