The entropy of systems

The following paragraphs from documents which I found on the internet confirms the entropy theory:

“Another technique used to test bonding theory is infrared spectroscopy. This technique measures the energy of bond vibrations. <b>Double bonds require more energy to vibrate than single bonds </b>(and less than triple bonds). This technique can then experimentally verify the predictions of Lewis and molecular orbital theory.”

“<b>The entropy of a substance is linked to temperature</b>. At higher temperatures, kinetic energy and randomness increase. As temperature decreases, so does entropy. Temperature reflects the movement of molecules, and heat is one type of kinetic energy. The other type of energy is potential energy, the energy of position. Chemical bonds are one example of potential energy.”

This brings me to think that the highest entropy of the solar system, for example, is not at the very center of the sun but very close. By definition, if all motion falls to zero as the very center of the sun, maybe this area is actually cooler than its surroundings. The atoms in that location do not have the same properties as the ones nearer to the surface. The amount of energy free to do useful work falls to zero.

So, when do we rewrite our physics textbooks?

In case you wonder where I retrieved the above information, here is the link:
www.wwnorton.com/chemistry/overview/ch7.htm

Obviously, I took only the information which would prove this theory. Today's information is confusing, not knowing if entropy increases or decreases with time on a galactic scale. I think gravity is the answer: it has only one direction: towards higher entropy.

Since the potential of the atom is now associated between subjects such as physics, electromagnetism, and chemistry, It would be more convenient to call this the <b>unified theory</b>.

GD, Maybe it would be helpful to look at these things as they relate to each other. You have atoms, gravity and entrophy in your puzzle. Atoms have gravity but not entrophy. How can entrophy have gravity or the other way around? You are trying to make a box out of a color-it can't work and so entrophy is unchanged. You can have a blue box but the box is not made of the color blue.

Hello Jim,

I don't know if you have noticed.... But I am trying to define "gravity". In order to do so, you have to replace this term with other words which would describe this "force".

Give it a try !

Hi GD, I have no idea whatever how to define gravity or force but as they say,I know it when I see it.

Jim,

Does the atom remain unchanged as the force of gravity acts upon it,

or

is gravity the physical transformation of the atom itself ?
