If we take hydrogen peroxide in the liquid state, it can break down to form water and oxygen.

如果我们有一些液态的过氧化氢，它会分解成水和氧气。

And the equation of state, pressure versus volume at constant temperature, is going to have some form, let's just draw it in there like that.

系统的态函数，恒温下压强比体积，变化曲线，就像这样。

And ultimately we are going to get to this state where we are going to form a bond.

最终我们将得到这个状态,即形成一根键。

You need a functional form that connects the value at one state of matter, the freezing point of water to another phase change, the boiling point of water.

你需要一个函数形式来,连接物质某个态对应的温度值，如水的冰点，和另一个相变,如水的沸点。

So the point is, once you're at equilibrium none of the other states they're accessible, the system could rearrange itself to form them, but there is no accessible state that has higher entropy than the equilibrium state.

所以要点在于，如果你处于平衡态,其他所有的态都无法达到，我们可以重组体统来形成这些态，但没有一个可以达到的态,有比平衡态大的熵。
