This example illustrates the fact that some macrostates provide a great deal of information about the microstate of the system. This is the case when the macrostate contains only one, or a small number, of microstates. A system in one of these macrostates is said to have a low entropy. Other macrostates tell us very little about the microstate of the system. This is the case when the macrostate contains a large number of different microstates. A system in one of these macrostates is said to have high entropy. Which of the following macrostates of the class would have the highest entropy? (a) All 24 students are present.
(b) 12 students are present.
(c) 1 student is present.
(d) No students are present
