[Fis] World Logic Day & Entropy as Degrees of Freedom

[Pedro C. Marijuán]

Thanks for the question, Marcus. Actually it is part of standard 
approaches to entropy. A light search on google will repeat in different 
terms:
/Any increase of entropy is an increase in the number of degrees of 
freedom over which the given energy is distributed/
//My students were instructed in considering chemical bonds as actual 
instances restricting molecular degrees of freedom (easier for 
understanding protein folding and enzyme function in relation with 
entropy changes in  "vicinal water"--part of enzymic "tricks"), etc. etc.

Best--Pedro
