Reversible heat and entropy change
defines the change of state quantity entropy with reversible path heat exchange.
symbols, variables and units
S: entropy (J/K); Q_rev: reversible heat (J); T: K.
applicable conditions and boundaries
Only reversible paths can be directly equal; irreversible processes need to account for entropy generation.
