Entropy and Temperature

[Bali]

S = Q/T, which would mean entropy and temperature of the system are inversely proportional

but when you increase the temperature of a liquid, won't it turn into a gas, therefore increasing entropy?...that would mean entropy and temperature are directly related

am i misunderstanding aspects of the equation?

Yes. What is happening to Q as you increase T? What happens to Q while you undergo a phase transition from liquid to vapor? What is happening to T as you make that same phase transition?

OH

right

thanks.

Q increases during liquid to gas, and T says the same, right?

Yes
