<p>In <a href="page.php?w=statistical_mechanics">statistical mechanics</a>, <b>configuration entropy</b> is the portion of a system's <a href="page.php?w=entropy">entropy</a> that is related to discrete representative positions of its constituent particles. For example, it may refer to the number of ways that atoms or molecules pack together in a mixture, alloy or glass, the number of conformations of a molecule, or the number of spin configurations in a magnet. The name might suggest that it relates to all possible configurations or particle positions</p><p>
