Thermodynamic resolution of Gibbs paradox

General Physics 2014-02-10 v1

Abstract

It is shown that the Gibbs paradox is actually paralogism, viz. an erroneous statement sounding credible due to the statistic-mechanical interpretation of entropy as a measure of "any and all" irreversibility. As an alternative, the thermodynamic theory of irreversible mixing processes are offered.
