Term used to describe and measure the degree of disorder in a system

Real World Example

Imagine trying to find your keys in a messy room where everything is scattered around. This is similar to the concept of entropy in that both describe a state of disorder or chaos where things are not in their expected places. Just as a tidy room makes it easier to locate your keys, a system with low entropy is more orderly and predictable, whereas a high-entropy system, like your chaotic room, represents greater disorder and unpredictability.
