Gibbs' Paradox is shown to arise from an incorrect traditional definition of the entropy that has unfortunately become entrenched in physics textbooks. Among its flaws, the traditional definition predicts a violation of the second law of thermodynamics when applied to colloids.
Abiotic and Biotic Factors in the Intertidal Zone. Abiotic and Biotic factors in the Intertidal Zone:Abiotic:Water Depth, temperature, turbulence, Salinity, Ph Balance, Tides, Winds, SedimentBiotic:Human Impact, Density of Algae/Kelp, Population of: Plants, Mollusks, Crustaceans, Worms, Fish, Birds, Mammals.biotic and Biotic Factors in the Intertidal Zone.

Background: The intertidal zone is the area where land and sea meet. This habitat is covered with water at high tide, and exposed to air at low tide. The land in this zone can be rocky, sandy or covered in mudflats.The intertidal zone is divided into several zones, starting near dry land with the splash zone, an area that is usually dry, and moving down to the littoral zone, which is usually underwater.he land in this zone can be rocky, sandy or covered in mudflats.
