A magnet is a substance which attracts or repels another substance. In a magnet, the atoms are aligned in a particular direction in domains. A magnet has two poles: North pole and South pole. The domains are oppositely aligned in unlike poles. Like poles repel each other where as unlike poles attract each other. Hence, when we bring like poles closer, repulsion would be experienced. In case of unlike poles, they would stick together.
The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.
An oxygen molecule is adsorbed onto a small patch of the surface of a catalyst. It's known that the molecule is adsorbed on 1 of 36 possible sites for adsorption. Calculate the entropy of this system.
Explanation:
It is known that Boltzmann formula of entropy is as follows.
s = k ln W
where, k = Boltzmann constant
W = number of energetically equivalent possible microstates or configuration of the system
In the given case, W = 36. Now, we will put the given values into the above formula as follows.
s = k ln W
=
= 
Thus, we can conclude that the entropy of this system is
.
