    Question Question about the equation for expressing the entropy of a system.

    Here is a quick one - how do you express as an equation (in standard format) the value X, which is the entropy difference between the sum of the set of components in a system and the total entropy of the system. I'm a bit rusty on this stuff. Thanks!
