This text explores the fundamental concepts of entropy change during reversible isothermal and isochoric compression, as well as irreversible isothermal expansion. It delves into the Boltzmann distribution and entropy as they relate to changing volumes, introducing key principles such as thermally accessible states and the significance of high and low values of q. Additionally, it discusses two methods for increasing Boltzmann entropy and examines the temperature dependence of entropy.
