Doesn't life, especially microbial life, break down matter more efficiently than non-life, natural processes? And, if that's true, wouldn't that mean that life, at least on Earth, is actually increasing entropy, even though this planet isn't a closed system?
@@andrew12bravo21there's nothing that states entropy can't be localised or must be spread evenly throughout the system. Now, life does increase the overall entropy, but that's offset by additional energy being infused from a different part of the same system. Ironically that energy is also the the waste from entropy from another part of the system.

First learned about entropy when studying engineering and 'heat engines'. All heat engines must reject some heat as part of their cycles. So in a sense, heat engines work on an 'entropy gradient', as energy flows from low entropy form to a higher entropy form. Then one day I had a 'light bulb moment' when I realized that all of life does the same thing. I would say that all forms of life 'live' on similar energy flowing gradients, taking in energy in a low entropy form, using some to maintain/ grow, and rejecting some energy to a higher entropy 'sink'.
Usually, my head's spinning after viewing topics like this on other channels, but Mr. Ash is such a great presenter, that I come away with a much better understanding of the topic.

Entropy doesn't *have to* increase. It's just far, far, far more statistically likely to increase rather than decrease, because there are so many more "disordered" states than "ordered" states.
An easier way for most people to think about it is this - Entropy in the universe will increase. As long as this is the case, locally you can have pockets of low entropy. Just as long as the "disorder" or complexity overall is increasing. Of course this does not work so well when describing a system that must, at some point, reorder itself or already *had* reordered itself. And for that your explanation is a much better fit. But people have trouble wrapping their heads around that idea and fortunately none of us will be around for that anyway.
The question is: will entropy of system without life increase less then entropy of system with life or is same. My and Schrødingers idea is that life reduses entropy in close system, any comments.
This is easily one of the best videos I've watched explaining Entropy. I think there is a cognitive dissonance created by the words "order" and "disorder" that is better explained by the term "complexity" as you did in the video. In any ordered or disordered location, no laws of nature are being violated at any time. So, from that standpoint, the "order" is equal, though the "local complexity" can be quite different. The term "disorder" only adds to the complexity of understanding "Entropy." 😉

@ArvinAsh your channel is amazing brother! In this vid you mentioned how life progresses toward increased complexity (lower entropy). Can you look into the possibly of doing a vid on how the phenomenon of cooperation has contributed to that progression, from the evolution of multicellular orgs to human society? Big ask but maybe a worthwhile endeavor!
The mental note I made to myself to remember this all is "low energy + high enthropy component => low enthropy component (more organized) + high energy (dissipated)" and that's how life work to produce more and more order (but also dissipate more and more energy) from high enthropy disorganized matter + low energy around it
I know you're kind of joking, but that's an interesting question. It's so complex I'll miss stuff, but you took energy coming in Wi-Fi and your phone's battery, and converted it into a thought, which has order to it because I understood it. So did you actually decrease entropy in a sense? And so life itself is a decrease in entropy but can also cause a decrease in entropy, can cause an increase in entropy as well with destruction...
@WillyKillya it may have decreased locally in my head, but as you said, the Wi-Fi gave off heat. My electrical system gave off heat, and something was burned to produce the electricity. Hell, the calories I burnt creating the thought and moving my body to type the conversation increased overall entropy.
One of my personal interpretations of life is that it exists precisely to _increase_ entropy. Think abiut it: The purpose of life is to keep expanding itself ever and ever more to consume more resources and do more work, thus accelerating entropy.
You're mistaking an undesired side effect for a goal. This will become clear when technologically advanced aliens snuff us out to reduce the rate of increase of entropy.
@@brothermine2292that would be stupid, that’s killing life for living and only allowing some to live, which while on paper makes sense so they can use all those resources, but there’s a tremendous amount of resources that can really only be extracted from life processing them, the biosphere actually has many useful compounds in it. In addition most of the energy we use comes from sunlight which isn’t a resource that’s possible to drain.
Yes that’s the same notion as England’s paper from 2013. Specifically life would increase the rate of entropy increase - ie time is an essential element. Consider the fact that if you wish to drain your bathtub in the least time, you’d be better off creating a whirlpool at the drain - which of course almost always occurs naturally. But whether or not life increases or decreases the rate of entropy growth by large is an open question.
The problem with this theory is that it needs intentionality, aka that there is a universal objective (dissipating heat) towards which life should tend. It's the opposite, life is specialized in icreasing entropy because the more the certainty of a system (thus the more the complexity) the lower is its entropy and the lower the entropy of a system the bigger the entropy of the universe. It's not an objective, it's a rule to which life has to abide to exist because the universe works that way. It's like believing the refrigerator keeps the ambient cool TO increase the temperature outside when it's the opposite
Excellent video. And I’m glad you prefaced the origin of life segment by stating we don’t have all the answers. Interestingly each new theory on the origin of life fails to integrate all the conflicts from other scientific disciplines. One person’s theory won’t account for physical conditions that weren’t present at a crucial point such as the rapid onset of life so close to the heavy bombardment period, or others rely on a reducing atmosphere to protect nascent nucleic acids when the atmosphere was oxidizing, or when extreme levels of UV light would have destroyed the delicate nucleic acids, or the lack of evidence supporting a “probiotic soup”, etc. It’s apparent that the biologists aren’t talking to the astrophysicists, geologists, or mathematicians. Even if they were able to integrate the tremendous conflicts between the necessary conditions for their theories on the origin of life, they would still need to fill in huge gaps in knowledge with the Cambrian explosion, lack of intermediate fossil forms, explanation for random mutations accounting for beneficial changes when thousands of them would be required sequentially for say the nostrils 16:09 of a cow to migrate to the top of the head and evolve into a dolphin (especially in organisms with very long gestation periods). Notice I’m not saying bacteria can’t adapt to antibiotics or share genetic material (micro-evolution). It all boils down to “do you worship the God of the gaps” or “worship the god of give me enough time and I’ll figure all the gaps out”? It takes faith to worship either one. Choose wisely. A mind that is a product of simple undirected evolution in a universe that simply sprang into existence from a singularity might not be trusted to give a rational answer.
Great explanation as always Arvin, however can't help to feel that the words "order" and "disorder" murky the whole thing (like in the explanation with the solar system). Complexity, diversity or possibility may be wider terms but they might approach the concept better. But that's just nitpicking, amazing video!

Absolutely loved the video Arvin! I totally understand entropy and how life does not violate the 2nd law but perpetuates it. Beautiful I love speculation and am an amateur futurist. Hypothetically; if we had a truly closed system; life could not evolve in this environment, correct? Thanks!
Not really, this is because as long as there is an energy gradient you can draw an imaginary boundary within that closed system which excludes the higher energy part. Energy tends to dissipate precisely because of the second law so this tiny imaginary system looks like an open system and behaves like one too. You can observe the opposite too, if you consider the whole universe the energy is conserved (forget dark energy for a moment), as such it is an isolated system but life evolved anyways. This means all you need to have to have effective open systems and by extension life is an energy gradient

This could have been explained more readily by talking about free energy. Thermodynamics does not prohibit a decrease in entropy. Whether something spontaneously happens doesn't just depend on entropy but also energy. Commonly expressed through dG = dH - TdS (!!!) An everyday example is trying to mix oil and water compared to mixing alcohol with water. In the first case, the two liquids remain separated and have lower entropy. In the second case, they spontaneously mix to maximize entropy. Why the difference? Because of the energy associated with trying to force oil molecules to mix with water. It's like trying to push two south poles of a magnet together - it requires a lot of energy. But add a molecule with a part oil-loving bit and a part water-loving bit and, hey presto, the oil disperses. That kind of molecule is a surfactant. If you make a solution of surfactant, it spontaneously forms self-associated structures which decrease the local entropy. This is well-known in colloid and interface science. Life isn't unusual in the way suggested. The molecules that create cell walls etc are typically lipids which are like surfactants in that they have oil-loving and water-loving parts. It's all about balance.
Great so the molecules that create cell walls are typically lipids, and are surfactants. That’s great. Now, just explain how all of the little machine like parts found their way into the same spot before luckily having the surfactants to be surrounding the little machine parts and becoming a wall around the parts. The simplest single celled organism we know of has about 300 of these little machine like parts! How did all those parts, which are not surfactants, randomly and luckily find their way together in the same tiny spot at just the right time for the surfactants to form a protective cell wall? Why are there no life forms being discovered with far less than 300 machine parts? Shouldn’t there be at least a few life forms that landed, say, only 20 little machine parts? What about only 60? Why aren’t just 2 or 3 machine parts being found in any known single celled organism? There is something incredibly remarkable about this if you think about it! Bcus all of the 300 little machine parts are required for the survival of just the SIMPLEST single celled organism known to mankind. But we find no such thing as single celled organisms on the evolutionary ladder with less than a staggering 300 little machine parts! Lotta parts for the simplest life form don’t you think? And how does one explain the left handed chirality of all life on Earth? How do you explain this strict left handedness of amino acids found in ALL life forms? But now see there are equal amounts of right handed amino acids found in nature which could randomly attach to the long protein chains if life had indeed came about in a non-controlled, random environment. How can you explain the left handed chirality of amino acids in all life on Earth simply by random happenings in a non controlled matrix, when that matrix if it were a natural matrix, would have to be full of left and right handed amino acids?
@@effectingcause5484 Er...I gave surfactants as just one example to explain that local entropy can decrease without it being a violation of universal laws. This video leads with the suggestion that life is somehow unique because it leads to a decrease in entropy. It isn't. I merely gave an example.
@@toby9999 My point mrToby, is that there appears to be an intelligence behind the simplest known organisms known to mankind and that there are holes in the theory of random chance giving rise to abiogenesis of life on Earth. I point this out bcus the other guy mentions random chemistry possibly allowing for something as complex as a cell membrane to form, without acknowledging the fact that there are 300+ little orderly machines packed inside even the simplest cell membrane structure we know of. I point out that this ordered arrangement of molecular chemistry that is life must ultimately still come from a more orderly state of entropy, somewhere. Life is not very highly ordered. Life is not even more orderly than the sun! The sun being so much more intensely hotter than it’s surroundings, is in a much lower state of entropy than anything nearby to it, including life on earth. Complexity in life is not a state of low entropy. It is a state of entropy quickly becoming equalized. Life is an example of entropy approaching equilibrium fast. Life is not an example of very low entropy when compared to very hot things up against very cold things. Like the sun against the vacuum of space. Life is actually more of a vent for the entropy of the sun, which allows for total entropy of the solar system to approach equilibrium a little faster.
@@johnmiller0000 Hi John miller, I understand your logic to be correct. I wonder though, if the separation of oil and water, truly represents a decrease in entropy… Thinking of what’s happening chemically when the oil separates from the water this is actually increasing total entropy since the chemical energy stored within the mixture becomes less and less as the oil separates from the water.
Wow, This video DIRECTLY addresses a question I had on my mind for years. Even the idea that life itself may just be an inevitable result of the fundamental laws of physics is something I've thought about before. Until now, I had no idea that not only did someone else think of it but they took it seriously enough to give it some level of rigor in scientific analysis. Amazing video.
Life actually creates more disorder in the universe. This may be its actual reason for being...according to theories of Jeremy England. Paradoxically, it takes an organized intelligent entity to realize and accelerate that disorder..because there are activation barriers which inanimate matter cannot easily cross to realize that potential entropy. Even plants do this. They take more organized visible light photons, and create a mess of infrared photons. Plants thankfully export the excess disorder into deep space. Herbivores and carnivores and humans create disorder locally however. Just think of the lifeless moon. It preserves the information about asteroid collisions billions of years ago. Our living planet however destroys most of the evidence within a few million years.

So a part of increasing entropy is to create low entropy life that can increase entropy throughout the universe more efficiently 🤔 #soundslikepurpose 🤗 Great video as always Arvin 👍🏿
interesting! People that claim that evolution solves the mystery of life think that understanding the process somehow solves the mystery: it still remains unknown 'why' entropy happens at all, why life is at all, and why awareness somehow sprung out of a "blind" universe, with the express desire to improve its probabilities for self-preservation. The answer one usually gets is equally stuck in the realm of 'quantifying'. "It happened due to fortuitous chemichal reactions". That type of answer, when contemplated for long enough, only begs the question of why there is anything happening at all in the first place: random chance is only a rationalist reduction of the mystery, by taking the processes of the 'thing' and dressing them up in pomp and conceptual funnels for the mind to eventually feel that the 'thing' is now understood and the mystery solved. But the question isn't related to the process or the HOW the phenomenon unfolds. It's about WHY. Qualia. Motive. And there is absolutely no answer to the question of 'why'. Only speculation. Giving existence a motive is a impossible IMO, since it precedes even life itself. It just 'is'. And that is the mystery
Yeah, also technically life is higher entropy than the energy sources it uses. Since thermodynamic entropy isn’t measuring structural complexity or simplicity but rather energy state distribution (which can be tied with structure but that’s not inherently the case) and in this case, life is higher in entropy than the molecules it takes energy from.
Just something that came to mind while watching this that could be useful this time of year with people going on vacation & wanting to have cold beer, or want a lot of cold beer fast, say for a party. So you're at your beach rental & you just loaded the fridge with a case or two of warm beer & you have 10 of your friends coming over in an hour, normally there is no way in hell the fridge will get the beers cold enough to be enjoyable in time, but here is how you can do it, hell you can freeze everything in your refrigerator compartment if you fall asleep, forget about it and head out to the bars, & end up over do it. First pull the fridge away from the wall & clean the coils on the back & setup a few of the fans from the house having them all on max blowing over the coils on the back. You can make the refrigerator work even harder but you'll need to be careful not to electrocute yourself or anybody else including children or pets, or even start a fire. If you put a damp sheet over the coils so the sheet is touching all of the coils on the back, but do not have the sheet dripping wet to cause an electrical short and/or fire. Now with the fans blowing on the damp sheets coating the coils even more heat will be removed using evaporation. TAKE the sheet off when it is time to re-damp it, do not pour water on it while it is attached. Set an alarm on your phone to remind yourself it is time to redamp the sheet or completely remove it if the inside has reached the temperature you wanted for your beer. But if you're careful, you could use a spray bottle to mist the sheet, but again, be super careful. I own two computer 140mm fans that can be plugged into a USB port for extra cooling for computers. Today if I was doing this I'd put these fans with a USB rechargeable power brick inside of the refrigerator to move the air around to help pull the heat out of the items inside. Decades ago my friends & I rented a dump at the beach & the refrigerator would take over night to make a tray of ice cubes. Doing everything I stated above we had the fridge freezing a room temp case of beer in 40 mins forcing us to lower the speed on the fans, & removing the sheet since it was over kill. The biggest problem was the refrigerator was 60 years old, so old it only had one door that locked when shut & had the same type of huge handle you'd see on the inside of a airplane emergency exit. And the refrigerator was built into the kitchen cabinets stopping any airflow to the coils on its back. btw, those old art deco refrigerators, if refurbished with new Insulation, compressor, & a fresh coat of bright red paint, & with all of the chrome parts re-chromed, are highly collectible and sought after today. ...just like the old art deco glass bottle Coke vending machines for game rooms, & since people are going crazy for the 100% sugar-cane Mexican Coca-Cola, (instead of the corn syrup version we have in the USA), the old Coke vending machines have almost doubled in price. The Mexican Coke comes in the old glass bottles that work with the old vending machines. Thanks for reading my rantings, & if you know of a place making new versions of the old Coke wall mounted art deco machines, please let me know in a reply. ...guess now with CnC machines, someone could make one themselves, just "print" one out if they have the design.

If you see a cluster of stones and beside a building, you would NEVER come to the idea the building was built without an intelligent builder. Why you believe that in nature? Without an intelligent designer such sophisticated machines and structures can never occur. Law of entropy drives processes but without intelligence it is impossible to get sophisticated machines in nature in my opinion. So as a person who encountered Jesus and heard so many people tell their storys about/with him, I know he exists. Therefore I have to encourage you to search for him and don't reject God from the outset. He loves you. He gives true life, we are meant to have and true joy. Life is more than the material things. God bless you!
@@brothermine2292 my mistake I didn't properly formulate the sentence, from a objective physical perspective life exists to increase the overall entropy of the universe, thats our role. From a biological perspective our purpose or goal is to fight against internal entropy increase, thus increasing entropy of our environment
@@Balquieno : You'll be proved wrong when an advanced alien civilization snuffs out life on Earth in order to eliminate our unwelcome contributions to entropy.
Crystals have low entropy, so crystallization itself is a spontaneous process that sagregates a solution into high and low entropy components. Entropy stratification/segregation is spontaneous and life is just an extreme example of it.
Simple organisms are not "less ordered" than complex organisms. They are just simple. One can have a simple structure perfectly ordered or a complex structure perfectly ordered. The amount of entropy is higher in complex systems of course but the microstate still can be a ordered one
I believe Schrödinger also asked this question in his seminal "What is Life?" paper. Where he pondered on the properties of life at quantum level and entropy to a large extent. This is very insightful!

As a kid, I thought of entropy as the same as equilibrium. If I have two closed systems, one filled with a hot vibrating gas and the other with a cooler more sluggish gas - they would both be in equilibrium and therefore have the same high entropy. If all the gas in each system were all in one corner - neither would be in equilibrium, therefore both would have the same low entropy. Information tech: a well-designed software hash has information evenly distributed and is virtually irretrievable (high entropy). Plaintext has recognizable patterns intended to convey information (low entropy). If I have one system filled with frozen 0K water, we have a highly organized crystal (low entropy), but providing very little information (number of molecules). Another system filled with hot steam has highly randomized molecule position/orientation/velocity (high entropy), but potentially conveys a lot of information - pressure, temperature, turbulence. Information theory and thermodynamics seem to produce different intuitive views of entropy? The 2nd Law suggests that the universe will end with matter/energy dispersed randomly/evenly (high entropy). How would that be different from an ordered crystal (low entropy) - just dispersed at a much greater scale? I'm assuming that something like Higgs resonance over time would align all "particles" at entropy death. This suggests that entropy is more than just disorder and irretrievable information - perhaps planck locality plays a role?
The thing is, living organisms die. So using up received low entropy (from the sun) and using it to create an ordered system requires a LOT of energy, which it continues to consume during its lifetime. This is then all converted to high entropy when the organism dies, so if the universe is trying to use up as much low entropy as fast as possible, then this sounds like a great way to do it.

Recap by Tammy AI
Yes, entropy has to increase; i don't know who or what made that law, i hate laws without understanding source, but observation confirms it. This also gives me a hint on how emergence might work. Good video
Arvin, very good insights, bro! Please also refer Julian Barbour's book "The Janus Point", where he points out that our (possibly restricted) (Sub-)Universe is *not* a closed system! Instead (due to ongoing expansion of spacetime) it is *open* , such that entropy may not be the appropriate measure - entaxy may be (a term coined by Barbour, alluding to some yet unknown conserved property in an open universe). My personal conviction is that entropy, as an increasing property, is just one side of a coin inhabiting some conserved entity, Emmy-Noether-like, referring to *isotropy of time* (which is missing in all standard models of physics). Just my 3 cents, from a PhD Astrophysicist here in good old Germany. 😊
How did entropy increase by photons radiating away from the matter that condensed to form the solar system? (17:09) There was increasing order, not disorder. I don't see an increase in entropy in this case.
Life is like a turbine in a river that's used to generate electricity. Earth as a whole takes advantage of entropy by converting a few high energy photons from the Sun into chemical and kinetic work, and the effluent is a larger number of low energy photons. A river turbine works just the same, taking energy from high velocity water, turning some of that velocity into work, and returning the lower velocity water to the river from which it came.
Never thought of that. Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be converted into less energetic form thus a few photons release many less energetic photons. But you never see less energetic photons combine to form a more energetic photon. Photons degradation is the very definition of Entropy. But I do not agree Life in any way generates anything except speeds up the prosess of Photo degradation.
Jeremy England's dissipative adaption theory discussed in the video is eye-opening. It implies that life is inevitable and could make the case that the galaxy is likely teeming with lifeforms.
Indeed. It seems logical, but as I said, it's not proven. My opinion is that the universe may indeed be teeming with life, but I also think that intelligent life like humans is probably still very rare. Given the variety and tenacity of life on earth, such an intelligence as ours has only appeared once over the course of 4.5 billion years. That's pretty rare.
Attempting to compare concepts that are only apparent or meaningful to you as a specific and wonderfully unique example of consciousness illustrates the delightful irony of your complete dismissal of its existence outside yourself.

My rather esoteric analogy is life is matter that took an entropic loan (entropy debt if you will) from a Universe Central Energy Bank that uses fractional reserve lending
Fabulous video, Arvin, thank you. Entropy is one of those absolutely fascinating subjects. I dropped the word ‘disorder’ from my own description of high entropy sometime ago, preferring to use the word ‘diffuse’. So, is the universe a closed system, or an open one? I guess that’s a very big question. If Sir Roger Penrose theory of the cyclic multiverse is correct, and that is a very big ‘if’, then I suppose you could have each universe being a closed system, like a bubble…but then if each universe affects the other, our universe would be an open one.
Its like spinning a bottle of water to empty it faster. Like a layer of warm water mixing with a layer of cold water, creating vortices to reach equilibrium. Life only temporarily increases order to increase the long term dispersion of energy. Basically life is a more efficient way to reach equilibrium.

Perhaps heat/temperature? Entropy is like maximizing freedom (number of options) …but for the smallest units of matter/energy. Which ironically leads to the macroscopic becoming rather uniform, a sparse growing dispersing cloud of whirling energy
Put it simply, just as the wider world "pays" for the fridge to work "with interest", entropy is so powerful that it can whitstand the emergence of life, consciousness and self-awareness as well. If you think about it, entropy is our Ariadne's thread that can be used by science to build knowledge about the natural world. Also pointing it out that since entropy seems to tie into many areas of research, not just life but time as well, we're edging towards a quite holistic scientific work here.
I am a bit confused. Let's assume there is nothing in the world but just five gas molecules and we release them in the empty space. To increase entropy, will they just separate from each other and go so far away that they can't interact with each other or will they stay around each other so by interacting with each other they will create more disorder and entropy? If first case happens, at this point each molecule should be stable since they got so far away from each other and there are no interactions with anything (I mean they might be moving but is moving a thing if you are the only thing in the space since you are so far away from anything else), what will happen at this point? they will collapse to get more entropy? And if second case happens then it is opposite of what we expect from gas behavior. And let's say we have a minimum amount of energy (the lowest possible) and we let it in the space, how will that increase its entropy? ( I don't really understand what do I mean by saying energy, what is energy in the most basic form?). Is space related to entropy? Please help me solve this confusion if you have the answer.
"I am a bit confused." That is because scientists have it all wrong about entropy. Entropy is not about order or disorder. Let us make your example a bit more dynamic. Let us say you have a solar system sized universe with H2 molecules the mass of the sun randomly and evenly spread out. And they are at a temperature that keeps them happily floating freely. If nothing changes, most likely, the hydrogen will remain a gas forever and no change in entropy occurs. But now, let us increase the size of that universe to twice its volume maintaining both total energy and mass the same. What happens is that the outer H2 molecules will fly out as expected. The most energetic will be the ones flying out. This will cool down the inner part of the gas and lead to contraction. If we expand the universe big enough, the inner part of our universe will start to collapse as it cools down while the energy is being flung to the expansion. And later, a star will form.
@@pulsar22Thank you for your reply. Interesting, but I don't understand how a star is born. Do molecules moving out have an impact on the inner molecules movement? If the inner molecules have the same movement so why should they cool down (temperature is average of movement, right?) ? And if they are satisfied with their state why would they change it?
Hey Arvin, I’m remembering the quantum effects of hydrogen atoms crossing a molecular boundary resulting in growth, but can’t seem to remember where I had seen it. I know it’s a documentary about quantum biology, perhaps it was you on a presentation by the BBC?
Stories evolve , lists grow and it happens even more when you write it down or put it on computer disk with programs. Some of the entropy is going there and maybe we don't know why because language itself is a secret agent.
Great video! It got me thinking...is global warming aligned with the "reason" life exist (i.e. speeding up entropy)?... or maybe renewables vs fossils makes no difference to entropy at a "system" level?
Total Number of system’ states can be expanded by adding a low probability combinations, so locally entropy decreases but it increase the total entropy of system.
THANK YOU! Ive heard the concept of entropy throughout my college years, but all my teachers' explanations were always too vague. This was very precise and informative!
"entropy" is one of the most interesting term for me since i first heard it. i always feel like it takes more energy to move or create something but at the same time, there's something that strive off waste energy and it cycle all over again. like the energy of the sun feed plankton and other things eats it that later land on our dinner plate. science said one day the death of universe will be cold instead of a bang. sometime i think entropy cause the universe to keep on expanding forever without outside force. although i wont convince myself this is true but its possible.
" i think entropy cause the universe to keep on expanding" There is a new theory with regards to black holes and the universe's expansion. It says that the increase in black holes's mass is proportional to the speed at which the universe expands and that black holes are driving this expansion. I posit an extension that this is because the entropy of the whole universe taken all together is constant and must remain constant. So a black hole represents a massive decrease in entropy. Therefore a compensating increase in space must take place to keep the entropy constant for the whole universe.
@@pulsar22 that makes a lot of sense. There are many good theories out there about black hole. I like most of them since they all makes sense. I think that's the beauty of why we always have interest in learning new things.
entropy in the universe is low at the beginning, medium at the middle, and high at the end, akin to graphing y=x. complexity in the universe is low at the beginning, high at the middle, and low at the end, akin to graphing y=-x^2. we humans live somewhere near the middle, enjoying the high complexity. this is very simplified but it does give you a direct idea of what's going on.
A guess before watching the video: there are no isolated systems, right? Except maybe the whole universe, and even about that we don't know if it exchanges energy and mass with something outside or not.
Yes, there aren't any. There are no points, mass points, perfectly straight lines and so on. These are all concepts that we use to tell the bigger picture.

The chemistry axiom that bond breaking requires energy and bond forming releases energy caused it to transpire that molecules in living cells increased in size. Molecular evolution favoured cells with molecules that had catalytic or structural function hence favouring life over death. What difference does it make if 99.99% of the universe disappears in entropy if you’re in the 0.01% that is okay?
Order doesn't occur at minimum entropy, it occurs at intermediate entropy. The process of increasing entropy is a process of increasing and then later decreasing order.
Is not necessarily breaking the rules of physics, the low level of entropy is only temporary for each living being. The moment they die, the entropy increases until you become, generaly speaking, in time more and more entropic.
Very well explained. The 2nd law of thermodynamics, whilst certainly correct, might not be the most important, guiding principle of the universe. Maybe there's a 4th law of thermodynamics about the distribution of entropy within a closed system that could help explaining how life was able to form. Some kind of law of probability. It's all about the way the particles arrange themselves. Something must explain, how order arises in the first place. Not violating the 2nd law doesn't explain much yet. I believe it's correct, that humans, animals, plants are good at increasing entropy, but I have my doubts, that our purpose is to increase the entropy of the universe. If entropy was the main purpose, I am quite certain that there would be a much more efficient way than life to increase it. I believe the purpose is another one, increased entropy is just a consequence of the still unknown purpose.

Doesn't life, especially microbial life, break down matter more efficiently than non-life, natural processes? And, if that's true, wouldn't that mean that life, at least on Earth, is actually increasing entropy, even though this planet isn't a closed system?
@@andrew12bravo21there's nothing that states entropy can't be localised or must be spread evenly throughout the system.

Wow what do you do? This is very interesting
First learned about entropy when studying engineering and 'heat engines'. All heat engines must reject some heat as part of their cycles. So in a sense, heat engines work on an 'entropy gradient', as energy flows from low entropy form to a higher entropy form.
Then one day I had a 'light bulb moment' when I realized that all of life does the same thing. I would say that all forms of life 'live' on similar energy flowing gradients, taking in energy in a low entropy form, using some to maintain/ grow, and rejecting some energy to a higher entropy 'sink'.
One day I suddenly realize that developing eggs give off heat.
this is the perfect description of what entropy is and does. I wish I had such a teacher.

Entropy doesn't *have to* increase. It's just far, far, far more statistically likely to increase rather than decrease, because there are so many more "disordered" states than "ordered" states.
That’s actually circular logic unless you can physically define an order-disorder measure without referring to entropy.
That's because that is the description of entropy in classical physics, not the description of entropy in quantum physics.
An easier way for most people to think about it is this - Entropy in the universe will increase. As long as this is the case, locally you can have pockets of low entropy. Just as long as the "disorder" or complexity overall is increasing.
Of course this does not work so well when describing a system that must, at some point, reorder itself or already *had* reordered itself. And for that your explanation is a much better fit. But people have trouble wrapping their heads around that idea and fortunately none of us will be around for that anyway.
The question is: will entropy of system without life increase less then entropy of system with life or is same. My and Schrødingers idea is that life reduses entropy in close system, any comments.

I must admit that this was the best explanation of entropy I have listened to. Thanks.
This is easily one of the best videos I've watched explaining Entropy. I think there is a cognitive dissonance created by the words "order" and "disorder" that is better explained by the term "complexity" as you did in the video.
In any ordered or disordered location, no laws of nature are being violated at any time. So, from that standpoint, the "order" is equal, though the "local complexity" can be quite different. The term "disorder" only adds to the complexity of understanding "Entropy." 😉
Yes! Now it's time for a complete video of "complexity" definition!!

@ArvinAsh your channel is amazing brother! In this vid you mentioned how life progresses toward increased complexity (lower entropy). Can you look into the possibly of doing a vid on how the phenomenon of cooperation has contributed to that progression, from the evolution of multicellular orgs to human society? Big ask but maybe a worthwhile endeavor!
yesss, on how does more complexity help to dissipate more energy...
th-cam.com/video/RrCzYu3hs68/w-d-xo.html
The mental note I made to myself to remember this all is "low energy + high enthropy component => low enthropy component (more organized) + high energy (dissipated)" and that's how life work to produce more and more order (but also dissipate more and more energy) from high enthropy disorganized matter + low energy around it
My comments increase the universe’s total entropy. My job here is done.
1: we don't know whether the universe is a closed system.
2: entropy can also stay constant, not necessarily only increase.
I know you're kind of joking, but that's an interesting question.
It's so complex I'll miss stuff, but you took energy coming in Wi-Fi and your phone's battery, and converted it into a thought, which has order to it because I understood it.
So did you actually decrease entropy in a sense? And so life itself is a decrease in entropy but can also cause a decrease in entropy, can cause an increase in entropy as well with destruction...
@ilinx the universe may not be a closed system.
But within the observable universe it is 100% fact that entropy is increasing.
@WillyKillya it may have decreased locally in my head, but as you said, the Wi-Fi gave off heat. My electrical system gave off heat, and something was burned to produce the electricity. Hell, the calories I burnt creating the thought and moving my body to type the conversation increased overall entropy.
@@chadb9270 yeah, I guess it just shows even trying to decrease entropy locally, will just increase in the larger system
Arcing you are a fantastic teacher, thank you.
One of my personal interpretations of life is that it exists precisely to _increase_ entropy. Think abiut it: The purpose of life is to keep expanding itself ever and ever more to consume more resources and do more work, thus accelerating entropy.
You're mistaking an undesired side effect for a goal. This will become clear when technologically advanced aliens snuff us out to reduce the rate of increase of entropy.
Isn't this idea behind dissipation-driven adaption? (12:50 onwards)
@@brothermine2292that would be stupid, that’s killing life for living and only allowing some to live, which while on paper makes sense so they can use all those resources, but there’s a tremendous amount of resources that can really only be extracted from life processing them, the biosphere actually has many useful compounds in it. In addition most of the energy we use comes from sunlight which isn’t a resource that’s possible to drain.
Yes that’s the same notion as England’s paper from 2013. Specifically life would increase the rate of entropy increase - ie time is an essential element. Consider the fact that if you wish to drain your bathtub in the least time, you’d be better off creating a whirlpool at the drain - which of course almost always occurs naturally. But whether or not life increases or decreases the rate of entropy growth by large is an open question.
The problem with this theory is that it needs intentionality, aka that there is a universal objective (dissipating heat) towards which life should tend. It's the opposite, life is specialized in icreasing entropy because the more the certainty of a system (thus the more the complexity) the lower is its entropy and the lower the entropy of a system the bigger the entropy of the universe. It's not an objective, it's a rule to which life has to abide to exist because the universe works that way. It's like believing the refrigerator keeps the ambient cool TO increase the temperature outside when it's the opposite
Really good video, simple and clear explanation
Excellent video. And I’m glad you prefaced the origin of life segment by stating we don’t have all the answers. Interestingly each new theory on the origin of life fails to integrate all the conflicts from other scientific disciplines. One person’s theory won’t account for physical conditions that weren’t present at a crucial point such as the rapid onset of life so close to the heavy bombardment period, or others rely on a reducing atmosphere to protect nascent nucleic acids when the atmosphere was oxidizing, or when extreme levels of UV light would have destroyed the delicate nucleic acids, or the lack of evidence supporting a “probiotic soup”, etc. It’s apparent that the biologists aren’t talking to the astrophysicists, geologists, or mathematicians. Even if they were able to integrate the tremendous conflicts between the necessary conditions for their theories on the origin of life, they would still need to fill in huge gaps in knowledge with the Cambrian explosion, lack of intermediate fossil forms, explanation for random mutations accounting for beneficial changes when thousands of them would be required sequentially for say the nostrils 16:09 of a cow to migrate to the top of the head and evolve into a dolphin (especially in organisms with very long gestation periods). Notice I’m not saying bacteria can’t adapt to antibiotics or share genetic material (micro-evolution).
It all boils down to “do you worship the God of the gaps” or “worship the god of give me enough time and I’ll figure all the gaps out”? It takes faith to worship either one. Choose wisely. A mind that is a product of simple undirected evolution in a universe that simply sprang into existence from a singularity might not be trusted to give a rational answer.
Religious and an evolution denier. What a crazy coincidence.
You deserve much more subscribers
Great explanation as always Arvin, however can't help to feel that the words "order" and "disorder" murky the whole thing (like in the explanation with the solar system). Complexity, diversity or possibility may be wider terms but they might approach the concept better. But that's just nitpicking, amazing video!

ty Dr. Ash. Thanks to your sponser for this video, too.
Absolutely loved the video Arvin! I totally understand entropy and how life does not violate the 2nd law but perpetuates it. Beautiful
I love speculation and am an amateur futurist. Hypothetically; if we had a truly closed system; life could not evolve in this environment, correct?
Thanks!
Not really, this is because as long as there is an energy gradient you can draw an imaginary boundary within that closed system which excludes the higher energy part.
Energy tends to dissipate precisely because of the second law so this tiny imaginary system looks like an open system and behaves like one too.
You can observe the opposite too, if you consider the whole universe the energy is conserved (forget dark energy for a moment), as such it is an isolated system but life evolved anyways.
This means all you need to have to have effective open systems and by extension life is an energy gradient

Thanks for the video. You always make them so I can understand the facts and it's easier for me to understand them. Thanks Mr. Ash!!
This could have been explained more readily by talking about free energy. Thermodynamics does not prohibit a decrease in entropy. Whether something spontaneously happens doesn't just depend on entropy but also energy. Commonly expressed through dG = dH - TdS (!!!) An everyday example is trying to mix oil and water compared to mixing alcohol with water. In the first case, the two liquids remain separated and have lower entropy. In the second case, they spontaneously mix to maximize entropy. Why the difference? Because of the energy associated with trying to force oil molecules to mix with water. It's like trying to push two south poles of a magnet together - it requires a lot of energy. But add a molecule with a part oil-loving bit and a part water-loving bit and, hey presto, the oil disperses. That kind of molecule is a surfactant. If you make a solution of surfactant, it spontaneously forms self-associated structures which decrease the local entropy. This is well-known in colloid and interface science. Life isn't unusual in the way suggested. The molecules that create cell walls etc are typically lipids which are like surfactants in that they have oil-loving and water-loving parts. It's all about balance.
Great so the molecules that create cell walls are typically lipids, and are surfactants. That’s great. Now, just explain how all of the little machine like parts found their way into the same spot before luckily having the surfactants to be surrounding the little machine parts and becoming a wall around the parts. The simplest single celled organism we know of has about 300 of these little machine like parts! How did all those parts, which are not surfactants, randomly and luckily find their way together in the same tiny spot at just the right time for the surfactants to form a protective cell wall? Why are there no life forms being discovered with far less than 300 machine parts? Shouldn’t there be at least a few life forms that landed, say, only 20 little machine parts? What about only 60? Why aren’t just 2 or 3 machine parts being found in any known single celled organism? There is something incredibly remarkable about this if you think about it! Bcus all of the 300 little machine parts are required for the survival of just the SIMPLEST single celled organism known to mankind. But we find no such thing as single celled organisms on the evolutionary ladder with less than a staggering 300 little machine parts! Lotta parts for the simplest life form don’t you think? And how does one explain the left handed chirality of all life on Earth? How do you explain this strict left handedness of amino acids found in ALL life forms? But now see there are equal amounts of right handed amino acids found in nature which could randomly attach to the long protein chains if life had indeed came about in a non-controlled, random environment. How can you explain the left handed chirality of amino acids in all life on Earth simply by random happenings in a non controlled matrix, when that matrix if it were a natural matrix, would have to be full of left and right handed amino acids?
@@effectingcause5484 What is your point?
@@effectingcause5484 Er...I gave surfactants as just one example to explain that local entropy can decrease without it being a violation of universal laws. This video leads with the suggestion that life is somehow unique because it leads to a decrease in entropy. It isn't. I merely gave an example.
@@toby9999 My point mrToby, is that there appears to be an intelligence behind the simplest known organisms known to mankind and that there are holes in the theory of random chance giving rise to abiogenesis of life on Earth. I point this out bcus the other guy mentions random chemistry possibly allowing for something as complex as a cell membrane to form, without acknowledging the fact that there are 300+ little orderly machines packed inside even the simplest cell membrane structure we know of. I point out that this ordered arrangement of molecular chemistry that is life must ultimately still come from a more orderly state of entropy, somewhere. Life is not very highly ordered. Life is not even more orderly than the sun! The sun being so much more intensely hotter than it’s surroundings, is in a much lower state of entropy than anything nearby to it, including life on earth. Complexity in life is not a state of low entropy. It is a state of entropy quickly becoming equalized. Life is an example of entropy approaching equilibrium fast. Life is not an example of very low entropy when compared to very hot things up against very cold things. Like the sun against the vacuum of space. Life is actually more of a vent for the entropy of the sun, which allows for total entropy of the solar system to approach equilibrium a little faster.
@@johnmiller0000 Hi John miller, I understand your logic to be correct. I wonder though, if the separation of oil and water, truly represents a decrease in entropy… Thinking of what’s happening chemically when the oil separates from the water this is actually increasing total entropy since the chemical energy stored within the mixture becomes less and less as the oil separates from the water.
Wow, This video DIRECTLY addresses a question I had on my mind for years. Even the idea that life itself may just be an inevitable result of the fundamental laws of physics is something I've thought about before. Until now, I had no idea that not only did someone else think of it but they took it seriously enough to give it some level of rigor in scientific analysis.
Amazing video.
This issue has been bugging me for 40 years and you clarified it exquisitely.
Life actually creates more disorder in the universe. This may be its actual reason for being...according to theories of Jeremy England. Paradoxically, it takes an organized intelligent entity to realize and accelerate that disorder..because there are activation barriers which inanimate matter cannot easily cross to realize that potential entropy. Even plants do this. They take more organized visible light photons, and create a mess of infrared photons. Plants thankfully export the excess disorder into deep space. Herbivores and carnivores and humans create disorder locally however. Just think of the lifeless moon. It preserves the information about asteroid collisions billions of years ago. Our living planet however destroys most of the evidence within a few million years.
Great video, great science. Thanks, Arvin.

interesting! People that claim that evolution solves the mystery of life think that understanding the process somehow solves the mystery: it still remains unknown 'why' entropy happens at all, why life is at all, and why awareness somehow sprung out of a "blind" universe, with the express desire to improve its probabilities for self-preservation. The answer one usually gets is equally stuck in the realm of 'quantifying'.
"It happened due to fortuitous chemichal reactions". That type of answer, when contemplated for long enough, only begs the question of why there is anything happening at all in the first place: random chance is only a rationalist reduction of the mystery, by taking the processes of the 'thing' and dressing them up in pomp and conceptual funnels for the mind to eventually feel that the 'thing' is now understood and the mystery solved.
But the question isn't related to the process or the HOW the phenomenon unfolds. It's about WHY. Qualia. Motive.
And there is absolutely no answer to the question of 'why'. Only speculation.
Giving existence a motive is a impossible IMO, since it precedes even life itself. It just 'is'. And that is the mystery
It's a tendency, but I think purpose is personal
Yeah, also technically life is higher entropy than the energy sources it uses. Since thermodynamic entropy isn’t measuring structural complexity or simplicity but rather energy state distribution (which can be tied with structure but that’s not inherently the case) and in this case, life is higher in entropy than the molecules it takes energy from.
@@Rudol_Zeppili Right, so life is basically machines that create more entropy than would otherwise normally be created...
@@Mageblood agreed 💯🙌🏿
Just something that came to mind while watching this that could be useful this time of year with people going on vacation & wanting to have cold beer, or want a lot of cold beer fast, say for a party. So you're at your beach rental & you just loaded the fridge with a case or two of warm beer & you have 10 of your friends coming over in an hour, normally there is no way in hell the fridge will get the beers cold enough to be enjoyable in time, but here is how you can do it, hell you can freeze everything in your refrigerator compartment if you fall asleep, forget about it and head out to the bars, & end up over do it.
First pull the fridge away from the wall & clean the coils on the back & setup a few of the fans from the house having them all on max blowing over the coils on the back.
You can make the refrigerator work even harder but you'll need to be careful not to electrocute yourself or anybody else including children or pets, or even start a fire. If you put a damp sheet over the coils so the sheet is touching all of the coils on the back, but do not have the sheet dripping wet to cause an electrical short and/or fire. Now with the fans blowing on the damp sheets coating the coils even more heat will be removed using evaporation. TAKE the sheet off when it is time to re-damp it, do not pour water on it while it is attached. Set an alarm on your phone to remind yourself it is time to redamp the sheet or completely remove it if the inside has reached the temperature you wanted for your beer. But if you're careful, you could use a spray bottle to mist the sheet, but again, be super careful.
I own two computer 140mm fans that can be plugged into a USB port for extra cooling for computers. Today if I was doing this I'd put these fans with a USB rechargeable power brick inside of the refrigerator to move the air around to help pull the heat out of the items inside.
Decades ago my friends & I rented a dump at the beach & the refrigerator would take over night to make a tray of ice cubes. Doing everything I stated above we had the fridge freezing a room temp case of beer in 40 mins forcing us to lower the speed on the fans, & removing the sheet since it was over kill. The biggest problem was the refrigerator was 60 years old, so old it only had one door that locked when shut & had the same type of huge handle you'd see on the inside of a airplane emergency exit. And the refrigerator was built into the kitchen cabinets stopping any airflow to the coils on its back.
btw, those old art deco refrigerators, if refurbished with new Insulation, compressor, & a fresh coat of bright red paint, & with all of the chrome parts re-chromed, are highly collectible and sought after today. ...just like the old art deco glass bottle Coke vending machines for game rooms, & since people are going crazy for the 100% sugar-cane Mexican Coca-Cola, (instead of the corn syrup version we have in the USA), the old Coke vending machines have almost doubled in price. The Mexican Coke comes in the old glass bottles that work with the old vending machines.
Thanks for reading my rantings, & if you know of a place making new versions of the old Coke wall mounted art deco machines, please let me know in a reply. ...guess now with CnC machines, someone could make one themselves, just "print" one out if they have the design.

Crystals have low entropy, so crystallization itself is a spontaneous process that sagregates a solution into high and low entropy components. Entropy stratification/segregation is spontaneous and life is just an extreme example of it.
That was the best explanation, in one place, of the broad relationship of thermodynamic entropy to biological processes that I've seen.
Simple organisms are not "less ordered" than complex organisms. They are just simple. One can have a simple structure perfectly ordered or a complex structure perfectly ordered. The amount of entropy is higher in complex systems of course but the microstate still can be a ordered one
I believe Schrödinger also asked this question in his seminal "What is Life?" paper. Where he pondered on the properties of life at quantum level and entropy to a large extent. This is very insightful!

Great video as always
As a kid, I thought of entropy as the same as equilibrium. If I have two closed systems, one filled with a hot vibrating gas and the other with a cooler more sluggish gas - they would both be in equilibrium and therefore have the same high entropy. If all the gas in each system were all in one corner - neither would be in equilibrium, therefore both would have the same low entropy.
Information tech: a well-designed software hash has information evenly distributed and is virtually irretrievable (high entropy). Plaintext has recognizable patterns intended to convey information (low entropy).
If I have one system filled with frozen 0K water, we have a highly organized crystal (low entropy), but providing very little information (number of molecules). Another system filled with hot steam has highly randomized molecule position/orientation/velocity (high entropy), but potentially conveys a lot of information - pressure, temperature, turbulence.
Information theory and thermodynamics seem to produce different intuitive views of entropy?
The 2nd Law suggests that the universe will end with matter/energy dispersed randomly/evenly (high entropy). How would that be different from an ordered crystal (low entropy) - just dispersed at a much greater scale? I'm assuming that something like Higgs resonance over time would align all "particles" at entropy death. This suggests that entropy is more than just disorder and irretrievable information - perhaps planck locality plays a role?
The thing is, living organisms die. So using up received low entropy (from the sun) and using it to create an ordered system requires a LOT of energy, which it continues to consume during its lifetime. This is then all converted to high entropy when the organism dies, so if the universe is trying to use up as much low entropy as fast as possible, then this sounds like a great way to do it.
0:00: 🔑 Life seems to contradict the second law of thermodynamics, which states that the entropy of an isolated system always increases or remains constant over time.
3:31: 🔑 Entropy is a measure of the number of ways microscopic components of a system can be arranged to produce the same macroscopic behavior.
6:09: 🌱 Life on Earth does not violate the second law of thermodynamics as organisms decrease entropy locally while increasing it in their environment.
9:44: 🌍 The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of a system must increase over time, but this does not mean that the entropy of each element of the system must increase.
12:09: 🌱 The formation of life is connected to the absorption and dissipation of energy, as suggested by the hypothesis of 'adaptation induced by dissipation'.
15:18: 🌍 The history of evolution is the story of a planet learning to harness solar energy through complex living beings in order to increase the entropy of the universe.
Recap by Tammy AI
Very well put.
Yes, entropy has to increase; i don't know who or what made that law, i hate laws without understanding source, but observation confirms it. This also gives me a hint on how emergence might work. Good video
Arvin, very good insights, bro!
Please also refer Julian Barbour's book "The Janus Point", where he points out that our (possibly restricted) (Sub-)Universe is *not* a closed system! Instead (due to ongoing expansion of spacetime) it is *open* , such that entropy may not be the appropriate measure - entaxy may be (a term coined by Barbour, alluding to some yet unknown conserved property in an open universe). My personal conviction is that entropy, as an increasing property, is just one side of a coin inhabiting some conserved entity, Emmy-Noether-like, referring to *isotropy of time* (which is missing in all standard models of physics).
Just my 3 cents, from a PhD Astrophysicist here in good old Germany. 😊
Another masterpiece Alvin thank you very luch for the best explanation of entropy i never seen you're the best
How did entropy increase by photons radiating away from the matter that condensed to form the solar system? (17:09) There was increasing order, not disorder. I don't see an increase in entropy in this case.
Life is like a turbine in a river that's used to generate electricity. Earth as a whole takes advantage of entropy by converting a few high energy photons from the Sun into chemical and kinetic work, and the effluent is a larger number of low energy photons. A river turbine works just the same, taking energy from high velocity water, turning some of that velocity into work, and returning the lower velocity water to the river from which it came.
Never thought of that. Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be converted into less energetic form thus a few photons release many less energetic photons. But you never see less energetic photons combine to form a more energetic photon. Photons degradation is the very definition of Entropy.
But I do not agree Life in any way generates anything except speeds up the prosess of Photo degradation.
Jeremy England's dissipative adaption theory discussed in the video is eye-opening. It implies that life is inevitable and could make the case that the galaxy is likely teeming with lifeforms.
Indeed. It seems logical, but as I said, it's not proven. My opinion is that the universe may indeed be teeming with life, but I also think that intelligent life like humans is probably still very rare. Given the variety and tenacity of life on earth, such an intelligence as ours has only appeared once over the course of 4.5 billion years. That's pretty rare.
Attempting to compare concepts that are only apparent or meaningful to you as a specific and wonderfully unique example of consciousness illustrates the delightful irony of your complete dismissal of its existence outside yourself.
a wonderful explanation of entropy in molecular world which forms life.

The kind of “order” one finds in crystals and whirlpools is not the same order as one finds in life. Crystals and whirlpools can be described with very little information. Life can only be described with high amounts of specified information.
agree
another difference: life perpetuates information across time, whereas a crystal is mostly static, unchanging
How about a time sensitive dynamic system? For success, a boundary was needed? Proving life began with feedback hit some obstacles.
Entropy can be thought of as how spread out some energy is or as anything mathematically equivalent to information or complexity.

My rather esoteric analogy is life is matter that took an entropic loan (entropy debt if you will) from a Universe Central Energy Bank that uses fractional reserve lending
Forgot to say...another good video Arvin.
Fabulous video, Arvin, thank you. Entropy is one of those absolutely fascinating subjects. I dropped the word ‘disorder’ from my own description of high entropy sometime ago, preferring to use the word ‘diffuse’. So, is the universe a closed system, or an open one? I guess that’s a very big question. If Sir Roger Penrose theory of the cyclic multiverse is correct, and that is a very big ‘if’, then I suppose you could have each universe being a closed system, like a bubble…but then if each universe affects the other, our universe would be an open one.
Does a completely isolated system actually exist?
Its like spinning a bottle of water to empty it faster. Like a layer of warm water mixing with a layer of cold water, creating vortices to reach equilibrium. Life only temporarily increases order to increase the long term dispersion of energy. Basically life is a more efficient way to reach equilibrium.
Can we estimate how much entropy dissipation a species or genus has? Use that in some kinda metric to determine which species is the top dog.

Is there a measurement unit for entropy, or is it always described in general concept?
Perhaps heat/temperature? Entropy is like maximizing freedom (number of options) …but for the smallest units of matter/energy. Which ironically leads to the macroscopic becoming rather uniform, a sparse growing dispersing cloud of whirling energy
Entropy has units of J/K (joules per Kelvin).
@@adrianbratt9927 thank you
Put it simply, just as the wider world "pays" for the fridge to work "with interest", entropy is so powerful that it can whitstand the emergence of life, consciousness and self-awareness as well.
If you think about it, entropy is our Ariadne's thread that can be used by science to build knowledge about the natural world.
Also pointing it out that since entropy seems to tie into many areas of research, not just life but time as well, we're edging towards a quite holistic scientific work here.
I am a bit confused. Let's assume there is nothing in the world but just five gas molecules and we release them in the empty space. To increase entropy, will they just separate from each other and go so far away that they can't interact with each other or will they stay around each other so by interacting with each other they will create more disorder and entropy? If first case happens, at this point each molecule should be stable since they got so far away from each other and there are no interactions with anything (I mean they might be moving but is moving a thing if you are the only thing in the space since you are so far away from anything else), what will happen at this point? they will collapse to get more entropy? And if second case happens then it is opposite of what we expect from gas behavior.
And let's say we have a minimum amount of energy (the lowest possible) and we let it in the space, how will that increase its entropy? ( I don't really understand what do I mean by saying energy, what is energy in the most basic form?).
Is space related to entropy?
Please help me solve this confusion if you have the answer.
"I am a bit confused."
That is because scientists have it all wrong about entropy. Entropy is not about order or disorder. Let us make your example a bit more dynamic. Let us say you have a solar system sized universe with H2 molecules the mass of the sun randomly and evenly spread out. And they are at a temperature that keeps them happily floating freely. If nothing changes, most likely, the hydrogen will remain a gas forever and no change in entropy occurs.
But now, let us increase the size of that universe to twice its volume maintaining both total energy and mass the same. What happens is that the outer H2 molecules will fly out as expected. The most energetic will be the ones flying out. This will cool down the inner part of the gas and lead to contraction. If we expand the universe big enough, the inner part of our universe will start to collapse as it cools down while the energy is being flung to the expansion. And later, a star will form.
@@pulsar22Thank you for your reply. Interesting, but I don't understand how a star is born. Do molecules moving out have an impact on the inner molecules movement? If the inner molecules have the same movement so why should they cool down (temperature is average of movement, right?) ? And if they are satisfied with their state why would they change it?
Hey Arvin, I’m remembering the quantum effects of hydrogen atoms crossing a molecular boundary resulting in growth, but can’t seem to remember where I had seen it. I know it’s a documentary about quantum biology, perhaps it was you on a presentation by the BBC?
You know what I also have written an article on exactly same topic and I also learned many from this video
Stories evolve , lists grow and it happens even more when you write it down or put it on computer disk with programs. Some of the entropy is going there and maybe we don't know why because language itself is a secret agent.
Thanks Sir for important information. Regards
In a world where LED lights are commonplace using the phrase '75 watt light bulb' not helpful.
Great video! It got me thinking...is global warming aligned with the "reason" life exist (i.e. speeding up entropy)?... or maybe renewables vs fossils makes no difference to entropy at a "system" level?
Total Number of system’ states can be expanded by adding a low probability combinations, so locally entropy decreases but it increase the total entropy of system.
I watch your videos to see the pictures. Nice.🙏
THANK YOU! Ive heard the concept of entropy throughout my college years, but all my teachers' explanations were always too vague. This was very precise and informative!
"entropy" is one of the most interesting term for me since i first heard it. i always feel like it takes more energy to move or create something but at the same time, there's something that strive off waste energy and it cycle all over again. like the energy of the sun feed plankton and other things eats it that later land on our dinner plate.
science said one day the death of universe will be cold instead of a bang. sometime i think entropy cause the universe to keep on expanding forever without outside force. although i wont convince myself this is true but its possible.
" i think entropy cause the universe to keep on expanding"
There is a new theory with regards to black holes and the universe's expansion. It says that the increase in black holes's mass is proportional to the speed at which the universe expands and that black holes are driving this expansion. I posit an extension that this is because the entropy of the whole universe taken all together is constant and must remain constant. So a black hole represents a massive decrease in entropy. Therefore a compensating increase in space must take place to keep the entropy constant for the whole universe.
@@pulsar22 that makes a lot of sense. There are many good theories out there about black hole. I like most of them since they all makes sense. I think that's the beauty of why we always have interest in learning new things.
entropy in the universe is low at the beginning, medium at the middle, and high at the end, akin to graphing y=x. complexity in the universe is low at the beginning, high at the middle, and low at the end, akin to graphing y=-x^2. we humans live somewhere near the middle, enjoying the high complexity. this is very simplified but it does give you a direct idea of what's going on.
A guess before watching the video: there are no isolated systems, right? Except maybe the whole universe, and even about that we don't know if it exchanges energy and mass with something outside or not.
Yes, there aren't any. There are no points, mass points, perfectly straight lines and so on.
These are all concepts that we use to tell the bigger picture.

The chemistry axiom that bond breaking requires energy and bond forming releases energy caused it to transpire that molecules in living cells increased in size. Molecular evolution favoured cells with molecules that had catalytic or structural function hence favouring life over death. What difference does it make if 99.99% of the universe disappears in entropy if you’re in the 0.01% that is okay?
Order doesn't occur at minimum entropy, it occurs at intermediate entropy. The process of increasing entropy is a process of increasing and then later decreasing order.
Is not necessarily breaking the rules of physics, the low level of entropy is only temporary for each living being. The moment they die, the entropy increases until you become, generaly speaking, in time more and more entropic.
Very well explained. The 2nd law of thermodynamics, whilst certainly correct, might not be the most important, guiding principle of the universe. Maybe there's a 4th law of thermodynamics about the distribution of entropy within a closed system that could help explaining how life was able to form. Some kind of law of probability. It's all about the way the particles arrange themselves. Something must explain, how order arises in the first place. Not violating the 2nd law doesn't explain much yet. I believe it's correct, that humans, animals, plants are good at increasing entropy, but I have my doubts, that our purpose is to increase the entropy of the universe. If entropy was the main purpose, I am quite certain that there would be a much more efficient way than life to increase it. I believe the purpose is another one, increased entropy is just a consequence of the still unknown purpose.
